Authorities in Maine are looking for the truck they think was the source of a rock that crashed through the windshield of a car, killing the driver.

Police say the rock fell off a vehicle hauling a load of stones estimated at 6 to 8 inches in diameter.

Seventy-three-year-old James Nash of Camden was pronounced dead at the scene.
