JAY — Police identified a local man Wednesday as the driver in a fatal crash Tuesday morning on Route 133.
Brandon Hall, 28, was pronounced dead at the scene, Police Chief Richard Caton IV said.
Hall tried to pass a vehicle, and the SUV he was driving went into a ditch, struck a tree and rolled over, Caton said. Witnesses did not feel Hall was doing anything wrong, he said. The vehicle just kept going straight across the road, he said.
The crash occurred between Macomber Hill and Lomie Rivers roads and was reported at 10:10 a.m. Route 133 was closed for about two hours.
