NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — One person is dead following a wrong-way crash on I-65 North early Thursday.

The crash happened at around 2:30 a.m. near the Vietnam Veterans Boulevard exit.

According to police, 54-year-old Roger Roland was driving his Ford Ranger pickup south in the northbound lanes when he struck a semi head-on.

He died at the scene.

The 50-year-old driver of the semi was transported to Skyline Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries.

During the crash, a wheel came off and struck a Goodlettsville Police officer's vehicle. That officer was not injured.

Eight brand new Corvettes were stolen from GM's Bowling Green plant. How good neighbors spoiled the heist

The line ''see something, say something" took on new meaning recently in Bowling Green. Two alert neighbors helped tip police to stolen Corvettes from the nearby assembly plant. That led law enforcement to find 8 stolen Corvettes worth over $1 million. We may all be able to learn a little lesson from this.
