Still no answers in the investigation of the semi-truck that crashed into the Cermak/Chinatown Red Line stop. Donald Wells, the driver, tested negative for alcohol and well-known drugs, but while police await a full toxicology report, Wells has exhibited some unusual behavior. He had another person's prescription drugs on him at the time of the crash, and he had missed a scheduled pick-up in Champaign, so his truck was empty when he got to Chicago. He still hasn't given a statement to the police.
After police took his clothes as evidence, Wells declined the paper garments he was offered and stayed in the police lockup naked, McCaster said.During the two days he was in custody, Wells urinated on the floor of his cell instead of using the urinal, sources said.
Also, that.
Police say they're examining all possible angles, including machine malfunction, driver fatigue, drug use, and Wells's mental state. [CBS 2, Trib, S-T, AP photo]

Yeah, definitely sounds like this guy should be kept in the clink for a couple of days. No use gettting him to a LICENSED MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL at all.
Didn't he refuse medical attention? Sounds like a possible untreated head injury to me. (The "After" behavior...not the before.)
i got ten bucks on mental state.
I thought he had refused medical attention as well. Not that that was the best choice - he did do a mean spell of floor-peeing
He looks like he smells like a grilled cheese sandwich thats been sitting in the sun far to long, and a hint of the red line train interior on a nice hot summer day. Drenched with mustard. and a splash of AIDs.
What does AIDs smell like?
Technically speaking, I cannot confirm this. But reading up on Bloomberg, it sounds like it smells like heroin, and crying children.
Is that a stock truck driver picture?
I was going to chime in on this in yesterday's post, but forgot to.
But if that guy is guilty of one thing right off the bat, it's not wearing a belt and looking like a pure, dragged through the mud manimal. Yes, a manimal.
That's a great shirt.
Is it just me, or are his pants undone? Like he never quite got them back on?
I thought he had just refused a urine test. But splitting that hair is kind of missing the point.
It should cross the minds of the Boys in Blue that a guy who prefers hanging out in his cell naked, and urinating on the floor of said cell instead of the toilet, is maybe slightly off his rocker and not fit to make his own decisions.
And maybe getting a proper examination from a licensed medical professional would save a whole lot of people a whole lot of work.
