A deadly weekend crash in Washington County remains under investigation by the Georgia State Patrol.

CEO Troy Flurry of the GSP Post in Milledgeville tells FOX 24 News, 53-year old Julius Jackson of Warthen, did not survive a wreck on Georgia Highway 15 early Saturday morning.

Flurry says Jackson was driving a Ford Taurus when he crossed the center line into the path of an 18-wheeler driven by, 57-year-old Lamar McNure of Wrightsville. Both of the vehicles caught on fire after the accident. Flurry says Jackson died in the crash, while McNure escaped the flames with only minor injuries.

The accident remains under investigation.
