Media summary: Daniel Keen died from positional asphyxia in his truck as trooper(s) investigated what they thought was a hit and run accident on elevated I-55. The accident occured when a vehicle driven by Whitney Blackwell, 24, slammed into Keen's F-250 diesel truck from behind, sending him over the side of elevated I-55 after he struck the concrete wall and leaving a "dinner plate sized" hole in the cement. Trooper(s) apparently never thought to look over the railing to where Keen's truck had landed upside down on a canal bank below.
