WACO, Texas (AP) - The father of NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson was killed Friday when the pickup truck in which he was riding blew a tire and flipped on a highway.
Oliver Tomlinson was killed at about 1:30 p.m. in the one-vehicle rollover, said Charlie Morgan, a Texas Department of Public Safety spokesman. Tomlinson was 71.
The driver, Ronald C. McClain was rushed by ambulance to Hillcrest Baptist Medical Center, where he later died, Morgan said. The 48-year-old McClain was believed to be a relative of Tomlinson's, Morgan said.
