Investigators said Hubley was driving a 2003 Ford F-250 truck north on Upper Valley Road.

They said Hubley was attempting to pass another vehicle when he lost control and crashed into a tree.

Police said the truck continued and ultimately came to rest after striking a wall and fence.

Investigators believe speed is a factor but said it is unknown at this time whether alcohol played a role.

Hubley was wearing a seat belt, according to officers. No other people were injured.

This is the 29th traffic related death of 2011 as compared to 31 at this time in 2010.
