He was pronounced dead at the scene at 11:00 a.m. The cause of death was multiple trauma from a motor vehicle accident. According to Georgia State Patrol Sgt. First Class Scott Thompson:A tractor trailer truck was driving north on the West Rome Bypass when he noticed a gold 2004 Chevrolet Venture van headed across the intersection.

The driver of the truck was not at fault, so there will not be any charges filed Thompson said.
