Tractor-trailer driver sought after hit-and-run crash on I-75 injures 2

Authorities are looking for a tractor-trailer driver who was involved in an interstate crash that sent two men to the hospital Thursday morning.

The truck reportedly forced the men’s vehicle off the side of I-75 and then drove off, Cherokee County officials said.

The 2000 Honda Accord was heading south in the far right lane on the interstate near Woodstock Road about 5:15 a.m., Cherokee sheriff’s office spokesman Capt. Jay Baker said. At some point, the big rig left the middle lane and struck the passenger car.
