A 77-year-old Ava man, Richard Lambright, died when his slow-moving 1992 Ford tractor was rear-ended by a semi on Illinois 4 near Pine Street. The driver, Joseph Polisky of Du Quoin, attempted to pass as the tractor turned, overturning it and fatally injuring Lambright. Polisky received a ticket for improper passing on the left as investigators continue.
