HENDERSON, KY (WFIE) - A man is dead after a crash in Henderson County early Friday morning.

The sheriff's office identified the man as 30-year-old Travis Bess, of Hanson.

Deputies say Bess was on his way home from work when he veered off the road and overcorrected his vehicle, which caused it to overturn several times before it landed on its roof.

We're told two of his co-workers at River View Coal found him pinned under his vehicle around 3:30 a.m. and called 911.

The coroner's office pronounced him dead on the scene.

We're told he was not wearing a seatbelt.
