Man dies after being ejected from vehicle Staff report Glasgow Daily Times MUNFORDVILLE — A Campbellsville man died after a wreck on Interstate 65 near the 54-mile marker late Saturday night.
Adam Bowen, 30, was driving a 2006 GMC truck north on I-65 when the vehicle drifted off the left shoulder of the roadway for unknown reasons just before midnight, according to a Kentucky State Police report. Bowen overcorrected to the right and the truck skidded off the right shoulder of the roadway before colliding with an earthen embankment beside the road. The truck overturned, which ejected Bowen, and both he and the truck came to final rest in the northbound lanes of the interstate, according to the report. A tractor-trailer then struck both Bowen and his truck, and two more passenger vehicles then struck his body. It is unknown if he was deceased after the initial collision with the embankment or if the impact from the tractor trailer caused his death, according to the report. Bowen was not wearing a seat belt prior to the collision. Trooper Charles Swiney, KSP public affairs officer, said the investigation is continuing as of Monday morning and said he did not know if Bowen possibly fell asleep at the wheel before drifting off the roadway. Hart County Coroner Jeff Roten said the results of the autopsy were “consistent with the motor vehicle accident,” but it was unclear at what point Bowen died. “I’m not going to speculate whether he died from the initial crash or if it was the tractor-trailer that killed him,” he said. “There just is no scientific way to say.” The Barren-Metcalfe EMS, Hart County EMS, Cave City Fire Department, Horse Cave Fire Department, Munfordville Police Department, Hart County Coroner’s Office, Hart County Emergency Management and Hart County State Highway Department assisted at the scene.
