A Mississippi man was fatally “buried” alive under “hot asphalt” after his truck malfunctioned and released the smoldering pavement on top of him, according to police. Darrell Sheriff, 41, was working on a hydraulic line underneath a truck he was picking up from AJ Materials in Jackson on Monday when the tailgate opened and “unloaded” asphalt onto him.
