A Breckinridge County Sheriff’s Office deputy has been involved in an injury accident while en route to an emergency call.
Kentucky State Police said that on Saturday afternoon at approximately 2:15, sheriff’s office Lt. Tyler Hardin (the BCSO website lists Hardin as a “Lieutenant” although the uniform shirt Hardin is wearing in the website photo states he’s a “Sergeant”) was traveling east on Hwy 60 with emergency lights and sirens activated. As Hardin approached the intersection of Hwy 86, a 2000 Ford F-150, being driven by Charles Board, drove into his path.
Board was airlifted to University of Louisville Hospital with life-threatening injuries and is currently listed in stable condition, police said.
Hardin was transported to Breckinridge Memorial Hospital for evaluation and later released.
Kentucky State Police is leading the investigation.
