SHELDON — A 38-year-old man from Enosburg was cited for DUI drugs following a fatal crash that took place in Sheldon back in May.
On May 6, authorities were notified of a crash involving a farm tractor towing a piece of farm equipment and a motorcycle on Vermont Route 105.
Shortly after the initial call was received a Franklin County Sheriff’s Deputy arrived on the scene and advised that the driver of the motorcycle, Rodney Hall, 71, of Milton, was deceased.
Following an investigation, police say that the tractor appeared to pull into the road in front of the motorcycle which was traveling west on Route 105.
The driver, identified as Jason Kennison, was transported to the St. Albans barracks on suspicion of DUI.
Following an investigation by troopers of the St. Albans Barracks, along with the Crash Reconstruction Team and the Franklin County State’s Attorney’s Office, it was found that Kennison was under the influence of drugs at the time of the crash.
Kennison was issued a citation to appear in court on September 27.
