BODY ON A GURNEY FALLS OUT OF BACK OF VAN

In Olympia, Washington, a gurney that was occupied by a deceased person fell from the back of a coroner’s van into traffic. The van was heading back to the county coroner’s office Monday after responding to a home death. Two gurneys actually fell out of the van at the intersection of Martin Way East and Phoenix Street Southeast. The gurney holding the deceased person remained in the intersection, while the second gurney rolled down the street and was found in a parking lot. Officers rerouted traffic while the gurneys were reloaded into the van. Officials say there was no trauma to the body and the family was notified.
