A Murfreesboro man was killed in a crash on I-840 in Williamson County.

According to the preliminary report from Tennessee Highway Patrol, Nathaniel Morelock was driving west down I-840 at the 39 mile marker when he lost control and slid into a yaw then overturned in the median.

The small utility trailer the vehicle was towing disconnected from the vehicle while still
