AUBURN, Ala. (WRBL) — Auburn police say a man is dead following a crash that happened on I-85 southbound.
Auburn authorities say on Wednesday, at approximately 5:30 p.m., police responded to reports of a commercial vehicle off the roadway near mile marker 56 on the southbound side and located the vehicle 40 to 50 yards off the roadway in the woods.
