Early on Friday morning, May 8, there was a fatal accident on Interstate 81 in Lafayette.
According to the Onondaga County Sheriff’s Department the two car crash happened just after 3 a.m. in the southbound lanes of Interstate 81, about a mile north of the Lafayette exit. It appears that a Ford SUV, being driven by a female in her thirties collided with a Lexus sedan which was being driven by a man in his fifties. As well as the Sheriff’s office, both the Lafayette and Nedrow Fire Departments responded as well.
The man was pronounced dead at the scene and the woman was transported to Upstate Hospital where she was treated for minor injuries.
The south bound lanes of Interstate 81 were closed between the Nedrow and Lafayette exits to clear the scene and for the Onondaga County Sheriff’s Accident Investigation Team to start the investigation. The names of the drivers were withheld until family had been informed.
