Police say shortly before 4:30 this morning, Hall was making a left turn from Kellogg Drive onto northbound Rock Road with the driver of a Lincoln heading south ran a red light striking Hall’s vehicle.  Firefighters had to extract Hall from his vehicle and he was pronounced dead at the scene a short time later.
