NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — One person is dead following a wrong-way crash on I-65 North early Thursday.
The crash happened at around 2:30 a.m. near the Vietnam Veterans Boulevard exit.
According to police, 54-year-old Roger Roland was driving his Ford Ranger pickup south in the northbound lanes when he struck a semi head-on.
He died at the scene.
The 50-year-old driver of the semi was transported to Skyline Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries.
During the crash, a wheel came off and struck a Goodlettsville Police officer's vehicle. That officer was not injured.
Kelsey Gibbs brings us a powerful story of humanity, compassion, and love in action while showing us the hard and lifesaving work our officers do daily. Nashville is lucky to have people like Lt. Hotz wearing the badge.
