(KAIR)--A man is dead following a Jefferson County farm accident. 

Sheriff Jeff Herrig tells MSC News it happened in rural Nortonville Friday morning, on the victim's property. “On Osage Road, which is south of Nortonville, we got  a call, roughly around 8:30 or so, about a farm accident. The gentleman got pinned between truck and trailer. I think he was there a little while before anybody found him.” 

Dead is 58-year-old Allen Locklin, and the investigation is continuing. “I don't anticipate it lasting very long, it appears it was definitely a farm accident," Herrig said. “Kind of a sad thing, that this kind of thing happens, but it does. I just feel bad for the family and friends.”  

Funeral arrangements for Locklin are pending.
