COBB COUNTY, GA — The driver of a pickup truck involved in a fatal hit-and-run this week on Interstate 75 (I-75) northbound at South Marietta Parkway has been identified and charges have been filed.
48-year-old Christopher Bradshaw of Canton is facing charges of Homicide by Vehicle and Hit-and-Run.
Bradshaw is expected to turn himself in to Marietta police.
Cobb County Police’s Chuck McPhilamy says the charges come after investigators found the vehicle involved.
Police announced on Friday that the black 2020 Chevrolet Silverado was located in Cherokee County by the Cobb County Police Department.
McPhilamy says the truck was able to be located thanks to multiple tips from the public and the concentrated efforts of the Cobb County Police Department Real Time Crime Center (RTCC).
The truck was wanted in connection with a hit-and-run that killed tractor-trailer driver Terrell Lowdermilk early Wednesday after he got out of his big rig following an accident with another tractor-trailer.
He was 36 years old.
Police say the driver of the Silverado pickup truck hit him and never stopped.
The other tractor-trailer driver involved in the incident was not injured.
