A two-vehicle crash involving a tractor trailer in far eastern Whitley County Tuesday morning claimed the life of a Pineville woman.
Shortly before 9:30 a.m., the crash occurred on KY92E just east of Whitley East Elementary School.
Upon arrival and through investigation, Kentucky State Police Commercial Vehicle Enforcement officers learned that a 2004 Ford pick-up truck, which was being operated by Linda Bedford, 52, of Pineville, had crossed the centerline. The pick-up truck collided with a 2015 Kenworth tractor trailer, which was being operated by Clyde Norman, 57, of Pioneer, Tennessee, according to a KSP release.
The Whitley County Coroner’s Office pronounced Bedford deceased at the scene.
