We have received tons of requests to post our exclusive photos of the incident on Hwy 11 North yesterday evening. As this story evolves, keep in mind that much of it is speculation at this point, but it appears that a truck loaded with animal carcases, heads, entrails, etc somehow lost much of its load on Hwy 11 North between DQ and Farmers State Bank. Eyewitness accounts suggest the truck swerved to miss an automobile pulling out from the bank side. It is unclear whether the contents spilled over the top or a dump gate came open. Photos have circulated online of a tandem axle dump truck with animal contents above the bedline with no tarp covering. There is no proof that this is the truck in question at this time. The incident is being investigated by KSP, Lee County Sheriffs Dept and Beattyville PD. Warning: the following photographs are highly disturbing and may perhaps be removed by FB. Mayor Scott Jackson stands at scene. Deputy Tyler Noe pictured investigating remains. Photos by Josh Smith
