Sonora, KY — Police in Hardin County have confirmed the death of a man who was driving a dump truck near Sonora, 38-year old Jamie Woosley. They said that Woosley was killed when the dump truck he was driving got into an accident and then overturned.
This was last Friday afternoon, May 15, 2015 though the details of what took place aren’t very clear yet. The news said that Woosley had been driving a truck for Bryan Farms that day and was headed along Highway 84.
Woosley, from Caneyville, was trying to go down a hill in the dump truck when it suddenly lost traction and kept rolling down into an embankment. When Woosley’s vehicle hit the embankment, he was ejected from the driver’s seat of the dump truck and he died immediately.
The news reports don’t really say what happened to Woosley’s truck or why it didn’t slow down, but it’s possible more investigation might be needed here.
Sometimes, there are issues with defects and malfunctions, which have to be addressed with the manufacturer or occasionally even the owner of the vehicle in question.
