An Alabama man died Tuesday of injuries he sustained Friday when his pickup truck struck another truck on an Alabama highway, state troopers said.

The two-vehicle crash occurred at approximately 2:50 p.m. Friday, and claimed the life of a Fyffe, Alabama, man.

James R. Posey, 68, was critically injured when the 2003 Ford F-150 that he was driving struck a 1996 Ford F-350 driven by Rickie D. Nance, 70, of Fyffe.

Nance was also injured; both were transported to Dekalb Regional Hospital for treatment. Posey was not using a seat belt at the time of crash.

On Tuesday, April 30, Posey succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased while at Erlanger Baroness Hospital, in Chattanooga, Tenn.
