(Deming) – Authorities say they've identified a man killed late last week after being run over at a Luna County truck stop.
Luna County Undersheriff Arturo Baeza said 42-year-old Charles Surber, Jr., of Morristown, Tennessee, was under a trailer at the Petro Truck Stop west of Deming – formerly the Savoy Truck Stop – at about 6:30 Friday evening when the driver of the big rig backed up.
The driver then pulled forward and drove around the truck stop without realizing what had happened.
A truck stop employee saw Surber lying on the ground after the tractor-trailer pulled away.
He was dead when emergency medical crews arrived.
