When Godhigh entered the northbound lane to go around the car, he crashed head-on into a Ford Focus driven by 30-year-old Jermaine Wilkins of Cartersville, Delk confirmed. After the initial crash, Godhigh’s car also hit the rear corner of the Escape, he added.
Wilkins was pronounced dead at the scene by the Cobb County medical examiner, Delk said. Godhigh and his passenger were taken to a hospital with serious injuries. The driver and passenger in the Escape were not injured.
A family friend created a GoFundMe campaign to raise funds for funeral expenses. Wilkins leaves behind an 11-year-old son, according to the page.
