The Gist: A crash involving an overturned tractor-trailer took place on I-575 Wednesday, resulting in the death of the driver.
What’s Happening:
- The crash occurred just North of exit 16 at around 9:16 A.M.
- Officers found the tractor-trailer overturned against the median wall with debris spread across the road.
Between the Lines:
- Police say the tractor-trailer was in the middle lane when it seems the driver took evasive action due to another vehicle merging.
- This led to the driver losing control and the vehicle overturning.
Ronald Campbell, 65, from Auburn, Georgia, lost his life in the crash. His family has been informed. As the investigation continues, the Canton Police Department is urging anyone with information to reach out at (770) 720-4883.
