A Greenup man has been killed in a crash involving a farm implement.

76-year-old David Judson was fatally injured when the van he was driving struck the hitch bar of an implement being pulled by a tractor.  The driver of the tractor, 32-year-old Justin Oseland of Toledo, told authorities he was pulling into a field entrance off of Illinois Route 130, a half-mile north of Falmouth Road when the tractor stalled.  Oseland said he was unable to get the tractor's implement off the roadway.

Judson was pronounced dead at the scene by Jasper County Coroner Jason Meyer.  Oseland was not injured.

State police say the crash occurred at 10:18 Monday evening.
