A wreck that killed four people on I-75 South in Henry County on Thursday morning involved just one vehicle, authorities said.
The crash happened about 11:30 a.m. at Bill Gardner Parkway (Exit 212). Three men and one woman, all from Barnesville, were traveling southbound in a Chevrolet Trailblazer, Henry County police Capt. Randy Lee said.
The victims have been identified as Charlie Lee Avery, 70; Lillie Avery, 70; Levi Brooks, 58; and Nathaniel Elliott, 60.
The driver appears to have lost control and the vehicle left the interstate, flipping several times.
