Area farmer killed in accident
08/01/2007


CLEARFIELD, PA. - An area farmer was killed Tuesday when his tractor 
rolled on top of him.
David Esch, 65, 428 Municipal Road, Millersburg, died when his 
Minneapolis Moline farm tractor rolled on Route 428 in Jordan Township 
at 1:45 p.m., Clearfield-based state police said.
Esch was driving from one part of his property to another, when for an 
unknown reason, his tractor entered the berm of the road and hit a small 
tree. The tractor then rolled over an embankment on the berm, pinning 
Esch underneath it.
Esch was pronounced dead at the scene by Clearfield County Coroner Joel 
Heath.
Police said Esch had a medical condition which caused him to black out 
and believe that condition may have been a contributing factor to the 
accident.
