THP confirms identity of victim from deadly crash in Loudon County

All lanes on Tellico Parkway were closed for an extended time Saturday night.

LOUDON COUNTY, Tenn. — Loudon County Sheriff's Office deputies and Tennessee Highway Patrol (THP) troopers are investigating a fatal two-car crash, according to a Facebook post from LCSO. 

THP confirmed the identity of the victim as Dylan Price, 29, of Vonore.

The crash happened on State Route 444 (Tellico Parkway) near the Clear Creek Boat Ramp, said LCSO. 

According to a crash report from THP, Price was attempting to pass another vehicle in a Ford Mustang on a double yellow line. He swerved to avoid hitting a car and over-corrected, causing his car to go off the road and hit "several trees," according to the report.

All lanes of Tellico Parkway were closed while troopers complete their crash investigation, LCSO said.
