A fiery collision killed one man and tied up traffic for hours on I-40 in Oklahoma City. A tractor-trailer traveling west ran up and over a white Oldsmobile in front of it.

Moments later, the scene became an inferno. Veteran Oklahoma City Police officer David Wilson arrived on the scene within seconds after the crash occurred. Despite the flames, he tried to pull the man in the Oldsmobile out.

The driver of the tractor-trailer was distraught after the accident, but he wasn't injured. Four vehicles in all were involved in the accident, and three other people received minor injuries.
