Accident Details:
On Wednesday afternoon, a fatal collision occurred on Interstate 64 in Harrison County, Indiana, prompting an investigation by authorities. The incident took place around 2 p.m. near the 99 mile-marker on I-64 E and involved a semitrailer and another vehicle. According to the Indiana State Police, the eastbound semitrailer experienced mechanical issues and stalled in the fast lane.
