Woman killed after semi carrying 40,000 pounds of pumpkins crashes into her home

5066391_G5066394_GA woman was killed when a tractor-trailer crashed into her home in Donelson early Wednesday morning. Officials said 66-year-old Carol Boo was asleep inside her bedroom when the semi barreled into the home on the 2800 block of McGavock Pike.

Boo’s son and husband were also inside the home but were not hurt.

The driver, 43-year-old Leonard Wilson, works for Iceline Logistics in Nashville.

Metro police said Wilson was carrying 40,000 pounds of pumpkins when the trailer wobbled, causing him to lose control and drive through several yards before slamming into the home.

The house was totaled from the impact of the crash.

Wilson reportedly picked up the pumpkins from Virginia on Tuesday and was heading to Mt. Juliet to drop them off.

Police said Wilson showed no signs of impairment and that he did provide a blood sample.

No charges have been filed against Wilson at this time.

Officials said there is no signage saying trucks are not allowed on the road.
