PRINEVILLE, OR -- A Redmond man died Wednesday morning, after the log truck he was driving went off the roadway into a ravine.

Around 3:30 this morning, 30-year old Daniel Williams was eastbound on Spur Road, off of Northeast Duncan Creek Road in Prineville, when the truck veered into a ravine.

Crook County Sheriff's Sergeant Dave Dethman says the truck's load of logs shifted, covering Williams.

Equipment from a nearby loggin site was brought to the scene and several tons of logs were removed.  

Williams was found deceased under the load.

Crook County Sheriff's Office and Crook County Fire and Rescue medics responded to the incident.
