CINCINNATI â Southbound Interstate 75 will remain closed near the Norwood Lateral until sometime Thursday afternoon following a fatal semi crash, according to Cincinnati Police and the Hamilton County Coroner s Office.
At approximately 5:30 a.m., police responded for a tractor-trailer on its side blocking all lanes near the interstate on-ramp.
Officials with the Hamilton County Coroner s Office confirmed the driver of the semi died Thursday morning, and his identity has not been released.
Police are investigating after a body was found floating in a retention pond in Fishers midday Wednesday.
Officers with the Fishers Police Department discovered the person after someone reported seeing a body floating in a retention pond in a residential neighborhood near Allisonville Road and Easy Street about 20 miles northeast of Indianapolis shortly after noon, Fishers Police Sgt. Tom Weger said.
A dive team recovered the body, Weger said, but were unable to determine if it was a man or a woman due to its condition. It was not immediately clear how long the body had been in the pond.
