An early morning accident Wednesday in rural Hempstead County claimed the life of a Murfreesboro man.
Kenneth Davis, 70, of Murfreesboro, was driving a 2017 Peterbilt loaded with logs on state Highway 355 between Saratoga and McNab.
Davis drove the southbound vehicle off the roadway, and the vehicle overturned, according to a preliminary fatal crash summary report filed by Arkansas State Police.
Davis was pronounced dead at the scene by Hempstead County Coroner David Peters at 4:50 a.m.
Time of the accident was recorded as 3:30 a.m. July 31, 2024, by state trooper Akari Alexander, who noted clear skies and dry road conditions at the time of the wreck.
Editor’s Note: Preliminary Arkansas State Police fatality reports sometimes contain information that turns out to be inaccurate. Typical errors include spelling errors in names, or incorrect ages; outdated hometown information; vehicle direction of travel; and incident times. The ASP sometimes corrects these errors in updated reports. ASP reports omit names of passengers or drivers who are not injured, even in instances when uninjured drivers may appear to be at fault. The reports also omit names of juveniles who were injured or killed, although we report those names when obtained through other sources.
