Killed at the Drive-Thru on This Day in History

 

This day in history: On this day in 2021, Tony Eyles, 42, died at a McDonald's drive-through in Vancouver, Canada, after partially opening his car door to retrieve a dropped credit card. His car rolled forward and collided with the restaurant's structure, pinning him between the car door and the vehicle's frame. Despite attempts to revive the victim, he died on scene.

In 2018, a man in St. Louis died after trying to get his food from a Jack In The Box drive-thru and also was pinned by his car.

Similarly, a 69-year-old man in Ohio in 2020 died after he dropped his change at a McDonald's drive-thru and opened the door of his pickup to retrieve the change and got caught between the vehicle door and a pole.
