The Ohio truck driver was indicted on accusations who county police believe damaged the CSX tracks moments before a train derailed there in late June in central Kentucky during the summer.<\/p>\n
Ricky Davis, 51, was charged this month with felony wanton endangerment for causing a risk to the lives of a CSX engineer and conductor.<\/p>\n
Seventeen cars of the 48-car CSX train, which were carrying more than 200 new automobiles, derailed June 30 off Ky. 1020 (Coral Ridge Road) between East Blue Lick and West Blue Lick roads.<\/p>\n
NEW 5 WLWT.com reports:<\/p>\n
The derailment occurred June 30 off Kentucky 1020 and involved 17 cars of the 48-car CSX train, which was carrying new automobiles.<\/p>\n
The newspaper report did not specify what Davis is accused of doing to the tracks.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
There were no railroad worker injuries reported at the time of the incident.<\/p>\n
