Our thoughts go out to his family.

A Tennessee trooper lost his life yesterday after losing control of his cruiser and colliding with two semi trucks.

The incident took place just before 4 p.m. on Monday, May 7, on I-40 near Jackson, Tennessee, according to Fox 13.

The Tennessee Highway Patrol says that 24 year old Trooper Matthew Gatti was on his way to respond to a call on eastbound I-40 near mile marker 74 when he lost control of his vehicle. His cruiser went sideways and hit one semi truck. The cruiser then spun out and collided with a second semi truck.

Gatti did not survive the crash.

No other major injuries were reported.
