Baby Dies After Georgia Police Chase Ends in 10-Car Interstate Crash
The Audi driver was going about 110 mph in a 60 mph zone, and investigators said 10 vehicles were involved in the crash.
- On Saturday night, a high-speed police chase on Interstate 20 in DeKalb County ended in a 10-vehicle crash, killing 7-month-old Kalayia Tolbert and fleeing driver Cameron Gabriel Kemp.
- Georgia State Patrol troopers spotted Kemp's Audi speeding at 110 mph in a 60 mph zone on the "darkened interstate" with headlights off while "recklessly weaving through traffic." When the trooper activated emergency lights, Kemp briefly stopped before accelerating away.
- Investigators determined Kemp was driving on a suspended license with two active arrest warrants—one for probation violation and another for failure to appear in court—and had prior incarceration with the Georgia Department of Corrections for aggravated battery.
- Troopers immediately rendered medical aid at the scene; the Georgia State Patrol's Specialized Collision Reconstruction Team is investigating the crash. Two other infants from one vehicle were transported to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta.
- Addressing the incident, the Georgia Department of Public Safety acknowledged that high-speed pursuits "raise serious concerns," but stated that drivers traveling at extreme speeds without lights on dark roads present an immediate danger to the public.
