Driver killed in Fort Worth rollover on I-35W near Texas 114 identified

A man killed Friday morning when his Ford Explorer flipped on Interstate 35W has been identified.

Witnesses told investigators that the man’s Explorer was northbound when it crossed a solid yellow line and onto the paved shoulder near Texas 114, Fort Worth police previously told the Star-Telegram.

Kirby Krum, 59, was pronounced dead at 6:54 a.m. at 15900 North I-35W, according to the Tarrant County medical examiner’s officer.
