1 dead after crash on I-264 East near Breckenridge Lane in Jefferson County

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A driver was killed in a serious crash Thursday night on I-264 just past Breckenridge Lane in Jefferson County.

The Jefferson County coroner's office has identified the driver as 46-year-old Arthur Kim of Louisville.

According to Louisville Metro Police, the crash was reported at 9:38 p.m. on I-264E between Breckenridge Lane and the Browns Lane overpass.

LMPD spokesperson Aaron Ellis said responding officers found two vehicles involved in the crash. Police believe a passenger vehicle headed eastbound I-264 clipped a tow truck that was disabled in the right lane. That caused the driver of the vehicle to lose control and crash.

Ellis said EMS and the Louisville Fire Department responded, and EMS pronounced Kim dead at the scene.

The driver of the tow truck was not hurt in the crash.
