CHICAGO (AP) — A 60-year-old Chicago garbage truck driver has died while helping to shovel snow on his route.
The Chicago Streets and Sanitation Department says
William "Billy" King was working on the city's North Side Saturday
morning when he had a heart attack.
King had gotten out of his truck to help shovel
snow around garbage carts when the heart attack happened. He'd worked for the
city for more than 10 years.
Commissioner Thomas Byrne says coworkers describe
King as caring and "always willing to help a friend."
