Man killed while burning brush in Kentucky

WKYT.com is reporting that an 83-year old man was killed while he was burning some brush near Emmalena, Kentucky:

The fire got out of control, catching the victim on fire and spreading to a nearby gas line, which ruptured. That lead to intense flames that caught the entire woods nearby on fire. No one else was injured.

The victim’s name has not been released.

Our condolences to the family.
