Alpharetta, Roswell PD investigate fatal crash

Alpharetta and Roswell police are currently investigating a single car crash on Ga. 400 that has left one person dead.

Alpharetta police spokesman George Gordon said a few minutes after 1:30 p.m. a city officer clocked a maroon Hyundai Santa Fe going more than 120 mph on Ga. 400 southbound near Haynes Bridge Road.

"Due to the excessive speed the officer lost visual contact," said Gordon.

The driver apparently only made two more exits before losing control of the vehicle, slamming into the bridge abutment at the Holcomb Bridge Road exit, said Gordon.

"The crash resulted in the fatality of the driver," he said.

Alpharetta and Roswell police are on scene, and Roswell will fully investigate, said Gordon.
