A Saturn sedan and a tractor trailer collided at the intersection of Airport Way and University Avenue, and Cody Odomin, the driver of the sedan, died in the crash. Troopers believe that speed was a primary factor, as witnesses say that the sedan was traveling over 90 mph. Alcohol may also have been involved. No one in the tractor trailer was hurt. 40 gallons of diesel fuel spilled from the tractor trailer but emergency responders were able to contain the spill. The accident is still under investigation.
