According to a local news station, the accident took place at eight in the morning on Wednesday. Witnesses say that one car was stopped for the construction worker when a quickly approaching car swerved to miss the stopped vehicle and instead slammed into the construction worker, who was holding a stop sign. The worker, 23-year-old Michael Lorie of Jasper was thrown 25 feet and died at the scene of the traffic accident. The driver of the car, 29-year-old David Lee Williams of Buna, was not seriously injured in the wreck. Charges are expected to be filed against Williams, though not until the crash is investigated further.
