Crofton man found dead in burning vehicle, foul play not suspected

A Crofton man was found dead in a burning vehicle Saturday night in north Christian County.

The call came in a little before 5:30 on A. Jordan Road about a mile north of KY 189 and Christian County Deputy Coroner Tim Fleming identified the victim as 84-year old Donald Franklin Jackson of Crofton.

Jackson had been driving the pickup and an autopsy was scheduled to determine if a medical issue may have contributed to his death, according to Fleming, who says foul play is not suspected.

The Christian County Sheriff’s Office and Coroner’s Office are investigating.
