Trooper Bobby Johnson of the Tennessee Highway Patrol told WJLE that 61 year old Kenneth Johnson was traveling southbound on Poss Road near his home in a 1999 Ford Crown Victoria at around 11:05 p.m.
According to the Trooper, Johnson lost control of his car while negotiating a curve causing his vehicle to rotate and run off the left side of the roadway striking a large tree and fence. Johnson was the lone occupant. He was not wearing his seatbelt and was found lying in the back seat unresponsive. Johnson was airlifted to Skyline Medical Center. Alcohol was a factor in the crash and charges are pending against Johnson.
