ELKTON, Ky. (AP) - A western Kentucky man who survived a traffic crash died when he walked into a fallen power line.
Kentucky State Police say 38-year-old Thomas J. Tucker of Elkton was driving on Ky. 171 in Todd County north of Allegre on Sunday night when his vehicle ran off the right shoulder. The KSP says Tucker overcorrected and lost control, causing the vehicle to overturn.
It slid off the road and snapped a utility pole.
