Atlanta driver asleep at the wheel

ktrk
By ABC13
ATLANTA, GA

A news crew started rolling when they spotted a Dodge pickup sitting in a lane of traffic. Its driver was seen slumped over and drooling.

After being woken up, he started his truck and took off. That's when he slammed into two cars creating a five-car pileup.

Before police arrived, he got out of his truck, climbed a tree and jumped a fence and ran away.

He's still on the run.
