Car Crash Claims Life of Roundhill Teenager On KY 185

A single vehicle accident claimed the life of Trent Woosley, 19, of Roundhill sometime around 3:00 AM Saturday morning. 

According to Butler County Deputy Joe Alford, it appeared that Woosley fell asleep at the wheel while driving home from work that night. Deputy Alford said that Woosley was traveling northbound on KY Hwy 185 when his vehicle went off the right hand side of the road and hit a driveway culvert, causing the vehicle to then travel back across the roadway, flip over and land on its top in a ditch. Woosley was pronounced dead at the scene.

No drugs, alcohol, or foul play were shown to be involved in the crash, and it appeared that the vehicle was traveling at a normal rate of speed for that portion of roadway, which was somewhere in the 5000 block of 185.

Deputy Alford was assisted on scene by Butler County EMS, 4th District VFD, Morgantown VFD, Morgantown Rescue Squad, Bear Creek VFD, Butler County Deputy Justin Deweese, along with the Butler County Coroner Marty Jones.
