A truck driver got on his CB radio and alerted another nearby trucker that he was feeling ill this morning on the I-81 in Franklin Country, Pennsylvania. Moments later, his rig veered off the road into a grassy shoulder and caught fire. The driver passed away on the scene.

He has been identified as 51 year old Steven Lee Winfrey of Roanoke, Virginia. The crash happened near the exit for Route 914 in Guilford Township at 4:52 AM.

The truck driver that Winfrey alerted on the CB stopped to help immediately after, but due to intense flames, was unable to get near.
