A crash on the Gene Snyder Freeway kills one man and injures another early this morning.  The identities of the two men have not been released yet.  According to the Louisville Metro Police the accident happened around 2:30 a.m. this morning. 

The crash occurred in the eastbound lanes of the Gene Snyder between Beulah Church Road and Bardstown Road.  The accident involved a Chevy Cobalt and a Ford Explorer.  According to reports the Cobalt hit the rear end of the Explorer causing it to then lose control.  The Explorer left the road, flipping several times.  Both of the occupants were ejected from the vehicle.  One of the men thrown was pronounced dead at the scene and the other was transported to University Hospital.  Details on his condition have not been released.  Police are also reporting that the driver of the Cobalt did not sustain any injuries.  Police are also reporting that they do not suspect alcohol to be a factor in this incident.

This is another example of how devastating an accident can be.  All accidents have the potential to cause extreme stress.  My condolences go out to the family and friends of the man killed and wish the injured quick and complete recovery.
