The man was attempting to herd the young birds to the safety when he was suddenly struck by a car
A dad was tragically killed while trying to help a family of ducks cross a busy road as his children watched on in horror. The man was attempting to herd the birds to the safety when he was suddenly struck by a car in Rocklin, California.
William Wimsatt told 3KCRA the dad was met by applause as he guided the ducklings to safety, with the traffic remaining stationary even though the lights were green. He said: “He got out of the car and was shooing the ducks and everyone was clapping because he was being really nice." William said the car seemed to appear out of nowhere. He continued: "I didn't see the car actually hit him. All I remember is the sound and then him flying across the intersection. His shoes and one of his socks were right in front of our car."
In tribute to the unnamed man, Summer and her children made a temporary memorial at the site of the incident, with her son even adding some rubber ducks as a reminder of the victim's good deed.
