The Kentucky State Police is investigating a fatal collision that occurred in Breckinridge County Saturday.

According to KSP Post Four, at around 5:10 p.m. CDT on July 26 Breckinridge County Dispatch requested troopers investigate a two-vehicle collision near the 13,000 block of KY 261.

The KSP says the preliminary investigation indicates 48-year-old Joseph Maynard of Owensboro was operating a truck heading south on KY 261 when for unknown reasons the vehicle crossed the center line, striking a northbound truck head-on and causing both vehicles to become engulfed in flames.

Maynard was pronounced dead at the scene by the Breckinridge County Coroner’s Office. Also pronounced dead at the scene by the coroner’s office were the operator of the northbound truck, 22-year-old Hunter Lyons, and a one-year-old juvenile in his vehicle. An adult female passenger in Lyons’s vehicle was flown from the scene to the University of Louisville Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The KSP’s investigation of the collision is ongoing. The affected portion of KY 261 was closed for several hours for accident reconstruction.
