Rogers County Man Dies In Traffic Accident

An Inola man is dead after the "front-end loader" he was driving rolled off a Rogers County road overnight.

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says 48-year-old Jay Ferguson was traveling down a hill in reverse with the loader bucket raised.  Ferguson lowered the bucket in an attempt to slow the vehicle down, but lost control and left the roadway. 

The vehicle rolled once, landing on top of Ferguson before coming to rest on its wheels.
