Lenoir City, TN (July 2, 2025) — A devastating multi-vehicle collision on Interstate 40 near Interstate 75 claimed two lives Monday afternoon and left another man seriously injured, according to the Loudon County Sheriff’s Office.
News sources show the crash happened near mile marker 367 and was reported around 12:10 p.m. on June 30. Authorities confirmed that the two victims who died were in the same vehicle. A dog found in the wreckage was safely rescued and is now recovering at the Roane County Animal Shelter.
The impact of the crash left a man pinned inside another vehicle. Emergency crews, including Loudon County Fire/Rescue, Priority Ambulance Service, and the Tennessee Highway Patrol, worked tirelessly to free the victim, who was airlifted to UT Medical Center by a Lifestar helicopter for treatment.
The collision forced both eastbound and westbound lanes of Interstate 40 to close for several hours as first responders cleared the scene and conducted an investigation. All lanes were reopened by 4:15 p.m., but the cause of the crash remains under review by local authorities.
