A funeral is planned for tomorrow for a Des Arc
man who died in an ATV accident over the weekend. Police say that
32-year-old David Gentry died when his four-wheeler slammed head-on
into a three-wheeler driven by another man.
The Prairie County Sheriff`s Department said the two men weren`t
traveling together and that they were out late at night. Police
said the three-wheeler did not have lights and they don`t know if
the four-wheeler did.
The other man, Frank Darby, was listed in critical condition at
the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences last night.
Gentry was a volunteer fire fighter and his friends say his
death was preventable. Gentry`s wife says her husband was
well-loved in the community and that everybody called him "Big
Dave." The couple have five-year-old daughter.
