Man killed, child critical after Ky. 30 wreck

By Brad Hicks / Staff Writer

A London man was killed and his 3-year-old son is in critical condition after being involved in an accident late Tuesday morning on Kentucky 30 near the border of Laurel and Jackson counties.

At 11:17 a.m., the London Post of the Kentucky State Police was dispatched to the scene of the accident, about five miles northeast of London. According to a police report, Dewey Gibbons, 30, of London, was traveling westbound on Kentucky 30 when he crossed the centerline and struck the vehicle of 19-year-old Benjamin Taylor of Tyner. Taylor was the only occupant of his vehicle.

Dewey Gibbons was pronounced dead at the scene by the Laurel County Coroner’s Office. Gibbons’ son was airlifted to the University of Kentucky Children’s Hospital for treatment. Taylor was taken to Saint Joseph London.

The crash remains under investigation by KSP Detective Mike Bowling. Bowling was assisted at the scene by Trooper First Class Barry Blair, Senior Trooper Darren Allen, the Laurel County Rescue Squad, Laurel County Ambulance, Inc., Life Net, Crossroads Volunteer Fire Department and the Laurel County Coroner’s Office.
