Authorities seek I-75 crash helpers for interviews 'It was horrific' Witness describes crash that killed six, injured six
Cleveland residents are invited to line the procession route today for Ocoee Middle School band director Brian Gallaher's funeral service.
Gallaher was one of six people killed Thursday when a tractor trailer on Interstate 75 plowed into a group of stopped cars in Chattanooga.
Evie West, public information officer for the Cleveland Police Department, said city police and the Bradley County Sheriff's Office will escort the funeral procession from Westmore Church of God, 2412 Wolfe Drive NW, to Hillcrest Memorial Gardens at 1700 S. Ocoee St.
West said the procession will leave the church around 3:30 p.m. The route is east on 25th Street and south on Ocoee Street to the cemetery.
"We encourage community participation and support for this family. Please feel free to show your support by lining the streets along the procession route," West said in a news release.
