On Tuesday, one person was killed following a three-vehicle wreck in Laurens County.
As per the initial information, the fatal semi-truck crash took place at 12:12 p.m. on Interstate 16, near mile marker 40 in Laurens County in which 3 tractor trailers were involved. The early reported revealed that the traffic was slowing and being rerouted to the left lane due to road maintenance in the right lane.
The driver of a tractor trailer did not see that traffic was slowing and rear-ended another tractor trailer before swerving left and hitting a second tractor trailer from behind as well. Due to the impact, the tractor trailer that struck the other two got engulfed into flames. The driver of that truck suffered major injuries and was declared dead at the scene by the officials. No other details are available.
An investigation is ongoing.
