First responders arrived at the scene just before 4:30 p.m. They found that a semi-truck traveling eastbound had crossed over a cable barrier. It then struck another semi-truck moving westbound. The driver of the eastbound truck, 45-year-old Jeffrey Oneal, was ejected along with his seat. He was found unresponsive on the road and was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the westbound truck was not hurt. Witnesses reported that Oneal appeared to be in distress before the crash.
