SHELBY COUNTY — The driver of a semi-trailer involved in a crash on Christmas Eve that killed four people is now facing vehicular homicide charges.
On the morning of Dec. 24, Ohio State Highway patrol was called to an accident involving three vehicles on I-75 in Franklin Township.
An investigation by troopers found that a Freightliner Cascadia tractor-trailer operated by Dayren Rocubert, 29, was traveling north on I-75 when the trailer traveled off the left side of the roadway and into the median.
The trailer continued through the cable median barrier into the southbound lanes of I-75, striking a GMC Terrain and Ford F-150 that were heading northbound.
