SPRINGDALE -- A 69-year-old man died Thursday after a tractor accident, according to the Washington County Sheriff's Office.
Deputies and Central EMS found Ronald Bruce Daniel dead about noon at 1165 N. Scott Hollow, No. 575, according to a statement from the Sheriff's Office.
Daniel appeared to have been traveling down a steep hill on a Kubota tractor on his property. The right rear wheel was sliding and then caught traction, causing the tractor to turn right. When the tractor turned, the bucket on the tractor hit the bank, causing it to overturn on its left side and pinned Daniel under the roll bar, according to the statement.
A family member discovered him and called 911.
