accident in the backyard

So, yesterday, I was sitting at the kitchen table preparing for my Sunday School Lesson. Behind me, on Ammon Road, I heard this loud banging sound. At first, I thought that it was a garbage truck hitting some big bumps, but it went on longer than you'd expect. I turned in time to see a pick up truck rolling off the road and approaching the canal bank. Many cars stopped as witnesses ans such and then the police came. I walked out to the edge of the backyard to see the commotion. It was crazy! I've never seen an accident before. I think the guy hit the edge of the barrier that crosses the canal and then rolled a number of times before stopping in the field just on the other side of the canal from our yard. I think the everyone was okay, but it made for quite the exciting afternoon - right in my backyard!
