Todd Heap accidentally hits, kills 3-year-old daughter while moving truck
Retired Pro Bowl tight end Todd Heap accidentally struck and killed his 3-year-old daughter Friday afternoon while moving his truck, according to Mesa, Arizona, police.
The incident happened in the driveway of a home in the gated community of Las Sendas. Police responded to a car/pedestrian accident about 3:45 p.m. and were told the girl was on the driveway when Heap moved the truck forward and hit her. She was taken to a local hospital, where she died, police said. Heap exhibited no signs of impairment, according to officials. The investigation into the incident is ongoing. Heap played 10 seasons with the Baltimore Ravens after being selected in the first round of the 2001 draft, and two with the Arizona Cardinals before retiring in 2012. "We cannot imagine the heartbreak and sorrow Todd and Ashley's family feels right now," the Ravens said in a statement. "This is knee-buckling news and an overwhelmingly sad tragedy. Our prayers, our thoughts and our hearts are with the Heaps, who have contributed so much to the Ravens and Baltimore community. We believe their deep faith and tremendous support from friends and family will help them through this unimaginable time." "Our hearts go out to Todd, Ashley and the Heap family," the Cardinals said in a statement. "It is a grief that is beyond words and one which no family should ever experience. Hopefully the prayers, love and support of their incredible group of friends and family provide them comfort that along with their strong faith will lead them through this unspeakably difficult time." Heap is a native of Mesa and was a two-time All-Pac-10 selection for Arizona State before heading to the NFL. |

****.
My dad's cousin did this when he was in his early 20's. He never really got over it. God forgive him because he'll never forgive himself...

Nothing near this, but reminds me of the simplest, yet most diabolical, prank ever played on me.
I was helping with a move, and my driving skills put me in charge of the U-Haul. I was backing out pretty near some nice cars, and my buddy was shotgun. So soon as I started easing back, he quietly stuck his arm out the door and smacked the outside of the door hard and shot me a look of unbridled fear. Just about shit my pants. EDIT: for clarity, I don't relate this to be light-hearted, but to emphasize that I empathize with how butt puckering it can be to think even for a moment that you've done something wrong with heavy machinery, no matter how careful you are. Let alone for your fears to come to fruition. Last edited by Baby Lee; 04-15-2017 at 10:35 AM.. |

I don't pray much, but even I had to send up something for Todd Heap and his family after reading this late last night.
Just awful, and it made me hug my own 3-year old daughter even more this morning. |
