Late Wednesday afternoon, the Boyle County Coroner released the driver's identity.
Police say he's 19-year old Kyle T. Leonard.

The fiery crash happened on KY 33, also known as Shakertown Road, around 3:30 Wednesday morning.

It will still be days before police know what caused the crash.

A forensic dentist was called to help identify Leonard.
