Police Continue Seeking Answers To Fatal Crash
WEST VIRGINIA....
Investigators are still attempting to determine what caused a deadly three-vehicle accident Wednesday on Interstate 64 in Milton that killed four people and closed down portions of I-64 for more than 10 hours. Cabell County Sheriff Tom McComas says the accident occurred when a vehicle in the westbound lane experienced a mechanical problem and, while the driver attempted to go to the side of the road, made contact with another vehicle, both vehicles going through the cable barrier and into the eastbound lane, striking an eastbound tractor-trailer carrying three people from Georgia. Those three and a driver of one of the cars died from injuries.
