    A crash involving several vehicles, including the deputy Sheriff’s office, stopped traffic on the Downtown Connector Tuesday afternoon, causing major delays. The Georgia State Patrol reported that a Chevrolet Silverado made an unsafe lane change, side-swiping a commercial vehicle.

    The Silverado swerved across multiple lanes before slamming into a box truck, hitting its rear bumper. The impact caused the box truck to flip onto its side, blocking three right lanes of traffic.

    The truck driver was rushed to the hospital with injuries. Around 4 p.m., a SKYFOX 5 aerial view captured the chaotic scene, showing the overturned truck and significant backups on the southbound I-75/85 lanes just before Langford Parkway.

    Amid the crash, a Fulton County Sheriff’s Office vehicle was also spotted damaged, confirming that one of their deputies was involved in the accident. Authorities are still working to clear the scene, with traffic slowly recovering.
