TIPP CITY, OH : 2 killed after tires crash through van’s windshield on interstate on Monday, 12th June 2023
Authorities in Ohio say two men are dead after two tires flew off a tractor-trailer and through a van’s windshield on Interstate 75.
Cameron Haller, chief of emergency services for Tipp City, says the Monday morning “freak accident” could happen to anyone.
“This is an absolute freak accident,” Haller said. “There was a piece of a semi-trailer that came detached.”
Investigators say two tires came off the axle of a trailer that a semi-trailer was pulling. The tires bounced over the median from the southbound lane, clipping one car then hitting a Chevrolet van head-on, sending the tires fully into the van.
