I-75 Tanker Truck VS Car Crash That Caused Explosion and One Being Killed
The driver killed in the fiery crash was identified as a 30-year-old male from Beavercreek, but the coroner has not released the identity of the man at this point in time. Lt. Ponichtera said significant repairs are needed for the jersey wall between the two sides of the road, and the outside wall was damaged as well. The road it self reportedly also will need repairs, and ODOT said they will have contractors coming in to remove and replace any destroyed pavement. Crews will reportedly continue to work through the evening to investigate the crash scene, clean it up and start repairs. Police will also be investigating all aspects of what led up to the crash, including why the driver was going the wrong way down the interstate. The truck driver reportedly had minor injuries and was speaking with officers about the incident. Ohio Department of Transportation cameras caught the explosion of a truck involved in the crash near West Riverview Avenue. |

I was about 3 miles away but didn't know until later. Can they do toxicology tests on a body that's completely carbonized? Guess it doesn't matter at this point... |

Re: I-75 Tanker Truck VS Car Crash That Caused Explosion and One Being Killed
Indeed. It's rare for a body to be completely destroyed in a fire despite its charred appearance. It typically burns a few inches in, but organs remain intact (for the most part) and will be screened. Vitreous humor (fluid behind the eye) is a great tool and the norm for toxicology tests. Former death investigator here should anyone ever have questions! |
