Two Die In Fiery Parkway Crash
Thirty-nine year old Richard Napier and 48 year old Jimmy D. Baker died Monday afternoon in a fiery crash which occurred just before 3:00 P.M. on the Hal Rogers Parkway in Clay County. Authorities say a Dodge pickup, driven by Napier, was headed east, three miles east of Manchester when it crossed the center line and collided head-on with a westbound tractor-trailer tanker truck, causing both vehicles to become engulfed in flames. The accident occurred between Manchester and Big Creek.
