POPE/SALINE COs.—We’ve received formal notice that Scott Goss, the driver of the truck that overturned last night on Highway 34 at the Pope/Saline County line, has died of his injuries.
Our sources advised that the wait he had to undergo to be removed from the wreckage of his truck was a long one, and while rescue crews were working frantically to free him, it was too long of a wait: he suffered severed brain damage due to lack of oxygen from the way he was trapped.
Our thoughts are with his family and friends, who have kept us posted since last night.
