“Although the students were not directly involved in the truck crash, they were still caught up in the horrible aftermath,” the fundraiser reads. “The 4 students who had witnessed this immediately got out of the car and ran in an attempt to protect themselves from the harmful gas spilling out into the air. As they all ran in different directions they ended up falling into ditches on the side of the road where they remained until being found by EMS.”
