A man, Neelands Somarriba, from Marietta, has suffered severe injuries after being involved in a multivehicle crash in the Northern lanes of I-75 in Cobb County, Georgia. According to accident reports, the crash occurred around 3 a.m. on Friday, April 24.

Investigations into the crash revealed that the victim was hit from behind after he stopped his 2012 Kia Rio in a lane close to Canton Road exit.

The vehicle that hit Somarriba’s car from behind was a 2017 GMC Sierra pickup truck that was driven by a 56-year-old man, also from Cobb County. As a result of the collision, the pickup truck went off the road. Another vehicle, a 2020 Maxda CX-5, also hit Somarriba’s car.
