Woman Dies After Truck Tire Blows Out On I-95

POSTED: Friday, June 17, 2005

The Georgia State Patrol is continuing its investigation into a wreck that claimed the life of a 34-year-old Brunswick woman this week.

Karissa Wetzel died after being ejected from her F-150 as it overturned several times near the Blythe Island Overpass on Interstate 95.

Investigators said both the pickup and dump truck were southbound on I-95. The vehicles were traveling almost side by side when the dump truck's left front tire blew out.

The driver of the dump truck was not injured.

No charges have been filed in the case.
