What should have been a case of police officers inspecting a disabled Chevrolet Impala on I-277 turned into a tragic, Charlotte, North Carolina multi-vehicle collision that killed one man and sent eight people to the hospital. The traffic crash is under investigation.
Per the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, a police officer arrived on the outer loop of I-277 to check on the disabled vehicle, which was parked on the left shoulder. Officer Jeff Templeton had already gotten out of his vehicle when it was rear ended by a Toyota Camry carrying William “Bill” Sweezer, his wife, and two sons. Another CMPD Officer, Chris Kunz, stopped at the scene to help. He was off-duty at the time. Minutes after, a Toyota 4Runner crashed into the Camry and struck Sweezer, who was standing on the roadway, and the two cops.
