Reply to comment by George4Mayor86 in MULTIPLE PEDESTRIANS STRUCK BY U-HAUL TRUCK IN BAY RIDGE, BROOKLYN by Darth_Monkey

What do you suggest?

"Struck by a U-Haul truck, that was being driven by a person"? "Stuck by a person driving a U-Haul truck"? Do we seriously believe that either of these communicate the facts better than "struck by a U-Haul truck"?

The NYTimes headline, “man driving UHaul truck strikes multiple pedestrians in Brooklyn” seems to cover it.

The headline was changed when a suspect was named. Even the headline in the linked article here is updated:

'8 struck, possibly intentionally, by man driving U-Haul truck in Brooklyn'
