Cobb Co, GA – One Injured in Two-Car Crash on I-75 S at Delk Rd

Cobb Co., GA (April 16, 2025) – A two-car crash injury occurred on Tuesday night in Cobb County, leading to traffic congestion and the partial shutdown of a major interstate. The accident took place on I-75 southbound at the Delk Rd exit (Exit 261) at approximately 7:45 p.m., blocking two of the left lanes. Emergency crews were dispatched to the scene within minutes, including paramedics, fire rescue units, and state troopers.

According to early reports from the Georgia State Patrol, the crash involved two passenger vehicles, one of which sustained significant front-end damage. At least one individual was injured and treated by emergency medical services at the scene before being transported to a local hospital for further evaluation. The injuries are believed to be non-life-threatening, but authorities have not yet released the names or conditions of those involved.

Firefighters assisted with vehicle stabilization and debris removal while officers from local law enforcement directed traffic and began a preliminary investigation. Due to lane closures and the high volume of vehicles during the evening rush hour, motorists experienced heavy delays. Georgia DOT advised drivers to use Hwy. 41 as an alternate route until the scene could be cleared.

The crash remains under investigation, and further updates will be provided as new details emerge. Our thoughts are with the injured and their families as they recover from this incident.
