Victim identified in fatal I-75 crash Monday

LONDON, Ky. (WTVQ)- The Laurel County coroner has identified a woman killed in a multi-vehicle crash on I-75 Tuesday evening.

The coroner says Jennine Petrey, of Williamsburg, was killed in the crash.

State Police say the accident happened around 6:00 p.m. just north of Exit 41 in the northbound lanes.

Investigators say traffic was already at a standstill on the interstate due to another crash in the area when a semi plowed into one car, triggering a chain-reaction crash that involved five vehicles and the semi.

The debris field stretched an estimated 300-yards, according to investigators.

The northbound lanes were closed for several hours.  They have since reopened.
