A man who drove tour buses for Anchor Tours, based out of Nashville was killed in a late nght trucking accident on May 4th. Police are not sure why but he rear ended a flatbed 18-wheeler with his tour bus. He was thrown from the tour bus and it caught on fire.

The crash also sparked a fire that ultimately charred the entire front end of the bus. At one point, flames were visible throughout the front of the bus. Muscle Shoals firefighters were able to control the fire quickly once they arrived.

The steering wheel of the bus was noticeably bent forward, and the front windshield was in the bed of the truck, having been knocked off during the crash.

Both vehicles were traveling west on Alabama 20.

The 18-wheeler had a two people onboard, but neither was injured. The police are still investigating the accident.
