TRACY, Calif. (UPI) - A
fiery crash of three truck-
trailer rigs, one carrying 18 -
2,000-pound military bombs,
Monday killed one man,
critically injured another
and blocked all northbound
traffic on Interstate 5 on
Monday.

Military demolition ex-
perts from the Army's
Explosive Ordinance
Disposal Unit at the Presidio
in San Francisco were
dispatched to the scene near
Tracy. Using a forklift, they
reloaded the bombs, some of
which had fallen off the
truck onto the freeway, into
another vehicle.

The driver killed in the
accident and the person
critically injured were not
immediately identified.

A spokesman at the
Presidio said the “con-
ventional 2,000-pound
bombs” sustained “very
