Phenix City man pleads not guilty to vehicle homicide - Columbus Ledger-Enquirer
A Phenix City man charged with second degree vehicle homicide in an April 28 crash on Victory Drive had worked a 12-hour shift at the Kellogg plant before he veered into another lane and struck another vehicle, Columbus police testified in... Police officer William Campbell told the court that Church had worked a 12-hour shift at the Kellogg plant before he attempted to drive home. He was headed westbound in the left lane when his 2004 Ford F-150 pickup veered in the back of a 2002 GMC Envoy Denali driven by a 30-year-old woman while she was in the turning lane. After Church’s vehicle struck the GMC, Campbell said the impact pushed the SUV into the path of Gilbert’s 2008 Chrysler Town & Country van, damaging the left front of the vehicle. In a report, police said a 1998 Peterbilt truck and a 2002 Chevrolet Suburban headed eastbound on Victory Drive also were involved in the crash. Gilbert’s vehicle spun around and struck the semi truck. Church’s pickup also struck the front of Gilbert’s van before it spun around and stopped in the median. Source: www.ledger-enquirer.com
