Our hearts are heavy as we mourn the loss of Kentucky State Trooper Hayden Phillips who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty yesterday. As a department that has also experienced the heartbreaking loss of one of our own deputies, we know all too well the pain and heartache that comes with losing a fellow officer.

Please keep the fallen trooper’s family, friends, fellow officers, and the entire Kentucky State Police family in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.

2:00PM update: roadway is back open

TRUCK OVERTURNS ON 120
MARION, Ky. - A semi-truck hauling steel tubing overturned Thursday morning about 8:30am on KY 120 east of Marion near Cave Springs Church Road in rural Crittenden County, spilling its load across the highway and blocking both lanes.

The trailer came to rest on its side, with dozens of long steel tubes scattered across the roadway. Emergency responders, including law enforcement and an ambulance crew, were on the scene.
No injuries were apparent at the scene, according to initial reports by Sheriff Evan Head.

Motorists should expect the roadway to remain closed for a time while crews remove the wreckage and recover the cargo. We will update this post when the roadway becomes back open

Happy 4th of July and 250th anniversary of the United States of America. We hope everybody has a fun and safe weekend! 🇺🇸

Motorists should seek alternate routes and avoid the area if possible. Drivers are also reminded that the KY 654 bridge east of Mattoon remains closed, making that route unavailable as a bypass between Marion and Mattoon.

Further updates will be provided as information becomes available.
