Officials have confirmed the identity of the man who lost his life in Cherokee County on Tuesday evening when a large tree limb fell onto his vehicle.

According to the county sheriff’s office, Wilson was returning to his parents’ home with food when the accident happened. His family revealed to Atlanta News First that he was a triplet.
Tim Morris, a nearby resident, described the scene: “A strong gust of wind pushed a number of branches and trees down my driveway and into my basement. By the time I reached the basement, the power went out, and I heard a loud crash.”
No other individuals were in the car, the sheriff’s office reported.
Morris added, “Several people were trying to help. We didn’t want to move him from the car but struggled to reach 911, losing connection multiple times. It took me 15 minutes to get through, so everyone was trying to assist as best they could.”
