A Princeton man was killed in a single-vehicle wreck in Lyon County Thursday night.
Post 1 spokeswoman Trooper Sarah Burgess with Kentucky State Police says troopers received a call about a single-vehicle collision near the 2900 block of KY 293 just before 9:00.
According to the initial investigation, 24-year old Jordan Duff was driving a compact SUV southbound on KY 293 when, for reasons still under investigation, the vehicle left the roadway and struck a tree. Duff was pronounced deceased at the scene by the Lyon County Coroner.
Trooper Burgess reports Duff was not wearing a seatbelt, and speed is believed to be a contributing factor in the severity of the collision.
State Police are continuing to investigate the fatal crash.
KSP Post 1 was assisted on the scene by the Lyon County Sheriff’s Office, Lyon County EMS, Lyon County Coroner, and the Eddyville Fire Department.
