Authorities identified 67-year-old Dell Clark, of Neck City, Missouri, as the man who lost his life and 40-year-old Jeremy King, of Troy, Tennessee, as the victim who suffered critical injuries following a multi-vehicle wreck that also injured several other people late Monday night in West Nashville.
As per the initial information, the fatal four-vehicle pile-up took place on Highway 100, near Natchez Trace Parkway. The preliminary investigation indicated that a Chrysler minivan tried to pass a Honda Accord and a Ford F-250 while going outbound on Highway 100.
At some point of time, the van hit the rear of the pickup truck. The van then spun out of control, crashing into the Honda and a Mercury Grand Marquis Sedan. The driver of the Honda, later identified as Dell Clark, succumbed to his injuries after the collision.
Multiple other people were transported to the hospital with non-fatal injuries. The minivan driver, Jeremy King, was rushed to a hospital in critical condition. There was no sign of alcohol or drug involvement at the scene. No further details were provided.
