Rollover accident traps woman in car

Cleburne and Liberty Chapel firefighters work to rescue a woman trapped in her Ford truck after the truck rolled over. The accident occurred in the 2400 block of Farm-to-Market Road 2135 at about 12:30 p.m. The truck, traveling southbound, left the road, went into the bar ditch on the opposite side of the road, crashed through a chain link fence and came to rest on the driver’s side, pinning the woman inside. Firefighters had to cut the truck’s roof off using hydraulic tools to free the woman. A CareFlite ambulance transported the woman, who was conscious when firefighters pulled her from the truck, to an area hospital. Details of her condition have not been released although rescue workers said she appeared not to be seriously injured.

A very welcome surprise

Madison Dingman, 6, a first-grade student at Norwood Elementary School in Burleson, received a surprise Tuesday when her father, U.S. Army Spc. Aaron Dingman, visited her class after arriving on a flight home on a three-week leave. Dingman, who is based at Fort Drum, N.Y., just concluded a 10-month tour in Iraq. “I felt real good and real surprised,” Madison Dingman said of seeing her father for the first time in a year. “I can read him some books.” Aaron Dingman said that Madison still had all of her baby teeth the last time he saw her. “I was kind of nervous about her reaction,” he said. “She’s grown up.”
