Driver Charged After 18-Wheeler Rear-Ends Mower In Martin County - WITN


After their co-worker was killed in a mowing accident on Monday, members of one local lawn care company are speaking out to ensure safety for their workers in the future.

Henry Kornegay, 59-years-old from Ayden, died after an 18-wheeler collided with his tractor Monday afternoon on Highway 64 in Martin County.

David Rogerson is the owner of the Precision Lawn Care and Landscaping company where Kornegay worked for the last 14 years. He says whether it's a two-lane street or a four-lane highway, drivers need to be aware when workers are nearby. Rogerson says, "Anytime you see a tractor or any type of, somebody working on the road or something, whether they're mowing grass or putting utilities in, to slow down and remember that person has a family."
