Knoxville Police have charged a woman with vehicular homicide following an early morning accident on I-40 East near Papermill Road.
KPD says 36-year-old Shannon Glasper is facing several charges as a result of that fatal crash which preliminary investigation reveals her car and a Pick-up truck pulling a fifth-wheel camper were traveling east on I-40 when she lost control and hit the pick-up which flipped over the wall and came to rest on its top on the ramp to Papermill Drive.
A female passenger of the pick-up was pronounced dead at the scene, while the driver and another passenger were taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Glasper fled the scene but stopped a short time later due to disabling damage sustained in the crash.
Glasper showed signs of intoxication and was driving on a suspended license.
An investigation remains on-going.
