HUNTINGTON, Ind. (WANE) - The Huntington Police Department said William Hall, 34, of Andrews, Indiana died when his van hit an ABF trailer on Friday evening.

Hall's 13-year-old son was extricated from the front passenger seat of the van by firefighters and taken to Parkview Huntington Hospital in good condition.
Police said the driver of the tractor-trailer rig was not injured in the accident.
