Georgia State Patrol investigators say it could be several more months before their investigation into a deadly eight vehicle pileup in Irwin County in August is complete.

Three people died August 8th in the fiery, chain reaction crash on Highway 32.     

Troopers say a tractor trailer driven by Marcus Boatwright slammed into vehicles that were stopped for road construction.

The Specialized Collision Reconstruction Team is handling the investigation because of their backlog of work and the number of vehicles involved.

They say they are not close to finishing the investigation.

An investigation into a deadly Memorial Day weekend motorcycle crash in Baker County could be wrapped next month.

45-year-old Willie B. Edison was killed when his motorcycle struck a car on Hawkinstown Road.

Edison's family says he hit a car that was parked in the road, but the driver of the car says she was backing out of a driveway when Edison hit her. So far, no charges have been filed.
