A CEO and his teenage daughter were tragically killed in a freak accident over the weekend. On Saturday Richard Hendrickson, 57, and his daughter Sally, 16, (pictured above) were in his pickup towing their boat behind them when they came around a curve in the highway, Utah Highway Patrol said in a press release.
This curve was also being navigated from the other direction by a tow truck carrying a mini bulldozer.
