Identity of Coal Truck Driver Released
Authorities identified the Pike County coal truck driver who died after his truck accidently ran over him.
Authorities say Kenneth Mounts pulled over along US 119 at Buckley’s Creek and got out of the rig.
The truck apparently started to roll and Mounts attempted to jump back into the cab to apply the brakes.
He wound up falling and was then hit and pinned under the truck.
