FANNIN COUNTY, Tex. -- A Denison man is dead after an early morning accident in Fannin County. It happened just after 5 a.m. at the intersection of State Highway 78 and County Road 2006 approximately 8 miles north of Bonham.

Troopers say 43-year-old Robert Baker, of Denison, was delivering newspapers heading southbound on the highway with his hazard lights on when he tried to turn left onto the county road when an 18-wheeler tried to pass him. Baker was hit on the driver’s side by the freight-liner, killing him on impact.

The driver of the truck was not injured.
