The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency is identifying the victim killed in an early Tuesday morning crash along Interstate 65 in Chilton County as a Birmingham man.

Michael David Kolarchick, 58, was fatally injured in a two-vehicle crash near the 203 mile marker, approximately one mile south of Clanton.

The roadway has since reopened.
