How frighteningly similar these pics look to the accident on June 5th, 2008 of the scene at 301 and Parsons when a van and semi collided.
The people in the minivan are my friends. They are recovering well. On another sad note, one of their two dogs with them died in the accident. The other got a dislocated hip - things the news didn't report in the article.
