US Naval Academy Midshipman Dies in Pa. Aug 5th 2012, 01:19 A U.S. Naval Academy midshipman from Pennsylvania has been killed in a car accident. The (Allentown) Morning Call reports 21-year-old Austin Tyler Zalik, a junior majoring in ocean engineering, died Friday in Pennsylvania's Berks County. Authorities say Zalik, of Allentown, Pa., had been sleeping in his pickup truck in the parking lot of a gas station before the accident at 7 a.m. Authorities say the pickup may have drifted forward as Zalik slept. The truck dropped off an embankment and into the path of a tractor-trailer. Zalik was a member of the 9th Company and was on the Naval Academy's gymnastics team and was going to be its captain in the upcoming season. The Academy says it plans a ceremony to celebrate his life later this month when midshipmen return. ——— Information from: The Morning Call, http://www.mcall.com
