Kirk N. Ruff, 41, of Red Lion, died as a result of injuries he received in a single-car crash in the 4300 block of East Prospect Road that occurred around 1:37 a.m. Sunday.
An autopsy completed Monday revealed that Ruff died as a result of blunt force injuries to the head and neck, according to the coroner's office.

Speed may be a factor in the crash and impairment is a factor in the crash, police said. The investigation is on-going.
