Athens man killed in another crash on Tallassee Road
A fatal wreck Thursday night on Tallassee Road in Athens was the third deadly crash on Tallassee in the past three weeks.
Other fatal wrecks occurred Feb. 7 and Jan. 24, all at different locations on the road, according to Athens-Clarke police reports.
On Thursday, authorities said Juanza Durnell Daniel, 37, of Merlin Drive, Athens, was killed about 9:40 p.m. when he lost control of his 1996 Buick Roadmaster and struck a bridge at a railroad crossing.
Daniel had already traveled through a roundabout at the Whitehead Road intersection when he apparently went off the road, according to Athens-Clarke County Coroner Sonny Wilson.
