Accident – Death – Obituary News : Man Fatally Struck by Multiple Vehicles on I-75 in Harrison Twp. Identified

Harrison Twp., Ohio – In a tragic incident that unfolded on Monday morning, a 38-year-old man lost his life after being hit by multiple vehicles on Interstate 75. The victim has been identified as Lucas Justice, according to Montgomery County Coroner Dr. Kent Harshbarger. The incident occurred on I-75 South, just south of Needmore Road.

As the investigation continues, the cause and manner of Lucas Justice’s death remain unknown. The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office is working diligently to determine the circumstances surrounding this unfortunate incident.

The events leading up to the collision began shortly after 2 a.m. when multiple reports were made to the Montgomery County sheriff’s deputies regarding a man on the highway. One eyewitness account described the man as jumping out in front of vehicles, causing drivers to swerve in order to avoid hitting him. Montgomery County Regional Dispatch records confirm this report.

While deputies were en route to the scene, additional calls flooded in, providing further details. Dispatchers were notified about a man in the road, with a box truck in close proximity and debris scattered across the highway. These alarming reports raised concerns and set the stage for a devastating outcome.

A driver for a local food delivery company called 911 to report his involvement in the incident. He stated that while driving back to the warehouse in his box truck, he encountered a man who suddenly ran out in front of him. The driver, still shaken from the incident, expressed his inability to prevent the collision. “I don’t know what happened to him, but I’m real shook up,” he said.

Tragically, the man identified as Lucas Justice was pronounced dead at the scene. The sheriff’s office has revealed that two additional vehicles struck him after the initial collision with the box truck.

The aftermath of the incident prompted the closure of the southbound lanes of I-75 for approximately four hours, causing significant traffic disruption during the early morning rush hour.

Authorities are urging anyone with information related to this incident to come forward and help in the ongoing investigation. The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office is determined to uncover the circumstances leading to this unfortunate loss of life.

As the community mourns the loss of Lucas Justice, it serves as a stark reminder of the importance of road safety. Drivers are urged to remain vigilant and exercise caution, especially during nighttime hours when visibility may be reduced.

The investigation into this tragic incident is still ongoing, and updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
