A truck driver has been sentenced to more than 20 years in prison after a deadly, fiery crash on Interstate 71 in Delaware County, Ohio, which claimed the lives of three individuals and left five others injured 123.
The incident, which occurred on April 11, saw Modou Ngom found guilty of three counts of aggravated vehicular homicide and five counts of vehicular assault, though there is some discrepancy regarding whether these were specifically labeled as 'aggravated' vehicular assaults 23 — reported by one source as being so 3, but contradicted by another 1.
Ngom’s sentence includes a lengthy prison term, along with a lifetime suspension of his license for the most serious charges, and a five-year suspension for other counts 3.
