CENTERVILLE — Two people were killed and two people were injured in a three-vehicle, wrong-way driver accident on I-675 South in Centerville Monday evening.
The wrong-way driver was north on southbound I-675 at Far Hills Avenue, glanced off one vehicle and hit a second vehicle head on, Centerville Police Officer John Davis said.
Melvin Bonie, 69, and Kalip Grimm, 18, were killed in the crash, according to the Montgomery County Coroner’s Office.
The driver of the offending vehicle is one of the fatalities, police said.
A fourth victim suffered minor injuries, Davis said.
Police are speaking with that fourth victim for a witness statement.
It’s too early to speculate whether alcohol or drugs played a role in the accident.
A Montgomery County coroner’s investigator was on scene and a Centerville Police Department traffic accident reconstruction team was on scene for most of the night.
