Louisville (WDRB) — A 29-year-old man died Monday morning in a crash on Interstate 65 near the Hardin/Bullitt county line.
Kentucky State Police said the collision happened around 9:46 a.m. near the 103-mile marker in the northbound lanes.
Investigators said traffic had slowed because of an earlier crash when a vehicle driven by Drew Cookenmaster of Hodgenville struck the rear of a tractor-trailer.
Cookenmaster died at the scene. The tractor-trailer driver was not injured.
Authorities closed the northbound lanes of I-65 at the Joe Prather exit for about three hours while crews reconstructed the crash scene.
