Man dies in apparent ATV accident in Tuscaloosa County
A man was found dead “at the apparent site of an ATV accident” early Monday morning, according to the Tuscaloosa County Sheriff’s Office.
The fatality occurred in the area of Lock 9 Road in the Fosters community southwest of Tuscaloosa. According to information released by the sheriff’s office, the investigation was handled by the Tuscaloosa County Sheriff’s Office Violent Crimes Unit, rather than the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, because the scene was on private property.
However, the sheriff’s office reported that “this appears to be an accident and no foul play is suspected.” The victim’s identity and other details were not released; an investigation is ongoing.
