Deaf Man Crawls For Help After Car Wreck

Injured Deaf man crawls for help following car accident in Idaho.

DOWNEY, ID -- Idaho State Journal: Sheriff's deputies have located a badly injured Deaf man who became stranded after crashing his car near this southern Bannock County town.

Around 12:20 a.m. Thursday the Bannock County Sheriff's Office confirmed that deputies had found the 50-year-old Downey man on Highway 91 near Red Rock Rock. The man had reportedly crawled over a mile from the scene of the crash to Highway 91 in an attempt to find help.

The Sheriff's Office was not sure where exactly the Deaf man had crashed his car. The man was still being treated at the scene of the crash as of 12:20 a.m. Thursday but he was about to be transported via ambulance to Portneuf Medical Center in Pocatello.

Reports indicated the man suffered multiple injuries in the crash and long crawl to Highway 91 but the Sheriff's Office said he's expected to survive.

The incident began to unfold around 11 p.m. Wednesday when the man texted his Mormon bishop stating that he had crashed his car and was badly hurt and stranded. The man did not say in his text where the crash occurred and contact could not be re-established, so the bishop called the Bannock County Sheriff's Office and deputies were dispatched to find the man.

The Sheriff's Office tried to call the man but he did not answer his cell phone. Authorities then attempted to locate the man by pinging a signal off his cell phone.

That effort revealed he was within 10,000 meters of Highway 91 between Downey and Preston not very exact coordinates.

Deputies then began searching all the roads along the Highway 91 corridor in southern Bannock County, eventually finding the man crawling on the highway about six miles southeast of Downey.

The man's identity has not yet been released.

Liuzza, 47, was home temporarily from the hospital on Dec. 13 and feeling a little more relaxed as he recounted the details of his harrowing experience.

It was easy to see in his features and by the steel cage wrapped around his right lower leg, rods poking through the skin to hold the disconnected portions of his bones in place that he had been through a struggle that he and his wife, Delia, owner of The Tipsy Teapot in Greenville, would never forget. She served as her husband's sign-language interpreter because Joe is Deaf... Read The Full Story.
