One person is dead and one person is in custody following a collision on the Western Kentucky Parkway Thursday.
According to a release from the Kentucky State Police, at around 4:25 a.m. on September 4 troopers from KSP Post Four responded to a call from the Grayson County Sheriff’s Office to assist with the investigation of a head-on collision near the 117-mile marker of the Western Kentucky Parkway.
The KSP says the preliminary investigation indicates a car operated by Francisco Tziquin of Houston was travelling west on the parkway when for unknown reasons the vehicle crossed the median, striking an eastbound car operated by Isaac Hearn of Leitchfield.
A female adult passenger in Tziquin’s vehicle was pronounced dead at the scene by the Grayson County Coroner’s Office. Two juvenile passengers in that vehicle were transported to Norton Children’s Hospital for treatment of serious injuries. Hearn was transported to Twin Lakes Regional Medical Center for treatment of serious injuries.
Tziquin was arrested for Leaving the Scene of an Accident-Failure to Render Aid or Assistance and for No Operator’s-Moped License. He remains incarcerated in the Grayson County Detention Center. The KSP’s investigation is ongoing.
