Wrecker Driver Here Dies Of Heart Attack
A Baytown man died after suffering an apparent heart attack at the wheel of a wrecker, which slammed into a parked car in the 600 block of West Defee about 6:35 p.m. Thursday.
John J. Egielske, 43, of 1804 McFarland, apparently died at the wheel of the wrecker, owned by Don Wheaton's Wrecker Service, Officer James Powell said.
