SCOTT COUNTY, Ky. (LEX 18) — The Scott County coroner has identified the person who died in a crash over the weekend.

Deputies responded to the area of McClelland Circle near Burton Pike shortly before 10:00 a.m. Sunday for reports of a single-vehicle accident. When arriving on the scene, officials found a white passenger car about 100 yards off the roadway in a field, and a driver was found deceased. After an initial investigation, police say that it appears the driver was ejected from the vehicle.

The Scott County coroner has identified the driver who died as 45-year-old Jason Darrow, of Scott County.

Officials are still waiting for autopsy results, and the cause of the crash is still under investigation.
