DeKalb County authorities have identified the man who was killed Monday when a tractor rolled over on him at the Smoke Rise Country Club.
Robert A. Rust, 29, of Snellville, was a groundskeeper on the golf course and was driving a tractor when it turned over around 2:30 p.m.
“It appears that he was operating a tractor with a grass blower attached to the back,” DeKalb fire spokesman Capt. Eric Jackson said Monday. “It is believed he was coming down a hill when the tractor turned over.”
There were no witnesses to the accident, but Rust was discovered by other groundskeepers, Jackson said.
