Traficant was driving a 1943 Ford tractor about 7:50 p.m. Tuesday at his family farm on West South Range Road about 140 feet into a large pole barn when the vehicle struck a large steel bade on the ground. That caused the tractor to flip with Traficant still in the vehicle’s seat, but trapped with the tractor on top of him

Sorry to hear this.

Tractors can be very dangerous, they have almost SUV like abilities.

My Dad crushed his chest a bit in a barn, broke some ribs on a Deere. He was lucky.

A family friend died on an old Ford on a side slope, he was not so lucky.

Hope he pulls thru, but his riding days are likely over.
