Kentucky State Police Trooper Shane E. Jacobs said in a phone call Wednesday night that an inmate was on work release Wednesday when he suffered a medical emergency. Trooper Jacobs said the inmate was taken to the hospital where he was later pronounced dead.

Freddie Daniels, 40, of Pineville, was reportedly on a grass-mowing detail for the city of Pineville in the Wallsend community. He reportedly suffered a medical emergency and stopped breathing.

Trooper Jacobs said an autopsy was scheduled for Thursday, July 2 at the State Medical Examiner’s Office in Frankfort.
