A Lincoln man is awake after nearly being crushed by a bus
LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN)- A Lincoln man is awake and in recovery after what his friends call a freak accident.
Tyler Loomis is the owner of Tailored Dreams Limousine Party Buses in Lincoln. He was attempting to do some maintenance work on one of the buses when things went horribly wrong.
“One of the airbags went out on the driver side,” said Lisa Price employee. “Tyler was in there trying to put the new one in. He had gone into the bus trying to get a better angle from up under the seat and when he came back, the air jack gave way and the actual frame of the bus came down on his chest, and cracked 16 ribs.”
After about a week of Loomis being asleep, his friends and family received some good news on Saturday.
“We just got updated today. He is awake. He still can’t talk, but he is awake, he is responding very well so we are in high spirits today,” said Price.
