Buffalo, MN (KROC-AM News) - Authorities in central Minnesota have released information concerning a tragic incident on Saturday that claimed the life of a young child.
The Wright County Sheriff's Office says 27-year-old Cody Ruby was driving a pickup towing an enclosed trailer when he pulled out of his driveway at a rural Buffalo residence. Apparently unknown to him, his 4-year-old daughter was riding on the tongue of the trailer.
The report on the deadly incident says Ruby drove about 3-tenths of a mile before the little girl fell off and was run over by the trailer. She was transported by ambulance to the Allina Hospital in Buffalo, where she was pronounced dead.
Her name has not been released.
