According to Cincinnati officers, a collision on Interstate 75 resulted in one fatality and two injuries.
Following a 42-year-old man’s truck colliding with several other vehicles on Sunday, the highway was closed for a number of hours, according to the authorities.
Lt. Jonathan Cunningham claims that the man rear-ended a sedan that was halted on the right shoulder of I-75 north while he was traveling outside of the designated lanes.
According to the police, a 7-year-old boy was in the rear seat of the sedan, and Charlie Harris, 71, was in the front passenger seat.
Harris and the boy’s vehicle then hit a white Transit van that was stopped, hitting George Jordan, 62, who was “on foot,” as Cunningham puts it.
According to police, Jordan was declared dead at the site of the collision.
Harris was taken to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, where he is still in serious condition, according to Cunningham.
According to police, the 7-year-old was taken to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, but it is currently unclear what injuries he sustained.
The truck’s driver was unharmed, but according to the authorities, driving too fast and being intoxicated are being looked into as possible contributing factors.
Jordan’s “on foot” status and whether or not he was a driver or passenger in one of the hit cars are both still unclear.
