UPDATED @ 4:30 PM

When Deputies and EMS arrived it was determined the victim was deceased. The cause of the accident is under investigation by the Houston County Sheriff's Office. The name of the victim has not been released yet due to making notification. Some of the family came to the site and a representative from Angel House responded to help the family.

NOTE: Some people had to be asked to leave due to taking pictures (NOT MEDIA) but bystanders. One even got an attitude about being asked to leave. The family was there and every Tom Dick and Harry was snapping pictures of the victim.

I want everyone to think about it if it was your family member would you want this to happen......

The victim has been identified as 45 year old Larry Andrew Rabion of Webb Alabama. our thoughts and prayers go out to the family during this time.
