75 Closed Hours Due To Strange Crash

05/16/2008 07:41:48


DAYTON, Ohio -- I-75 south was closed Friday morning for nearly 4 hours due to a bizarre crash.

A driver making his way down 75 south ran into the back of a police cruiser while officers investigated another crash at the 4 split. The driver then started driving the wrong way on 75 south in an attempt to flee from officers. He didn't get far. The car slammed head-on with a semi at the Stanley Avenue exit. The driver then tried to flee on foot, but police caught up to him almost immediately. The man was taken to the hospital with serious head injuries. Two passengers in the car and the truck driver escaped without injury. The crash is still under investigation.
