Fatal Crash
 
WBAY, WI
KANSAS CITY, Mo. A truck driver is charged with involuntary manslaughter and accused of violating sleep requirements in a fatal crash in Missouri that killed a Wisconsin man.
John White of Gulfport, Mississippi faces up to seven years in prison on the felony manslaughter charge.

Court records say the 42-year-old White violated commercial truck driving laws requiring at least eight hours of sleep within a certain period of time on the road.
Officials said White was hauling a load of bananas to a Wal-Mart distribution center when he attempted to cross over U-S 71 and collided with another tractor-trailer early yesterday.

The driver of that tractor-trailer, Steven Cousineau of Plover (Wis) was pronounced dead at the scene.

The crash caused two other wrecks, but none of the other drivers reported any injuries
