Monster Mayhem

DeKALB - The truck was getting too close. DeKalb residents Mary Kate Sibley and James Vesely were among some 100 people standing on the sidewalk Thursday afternoon in the 100 block of North Sixth Street, watching a monster truck crush a row of four cars. Each pass of the truck made Sibley and Vesely increasingly nervous, prompting them to move to the other side of the street. Minutes later, around 2:20 p.m., the truck driver revved the engine. The truck went airborne, flying over the four flattened vehicles, and then plowed through a crowd of spectators, scattering them.
