Charges stemming from a fatal auto crash last June have been filed against a Peachtree City man.

Robert Allen Wright, 51, has been charged with misdemeanor vehicular homicide and crossing the center lane of the road.

Wright was driving south on Ga. Highway 279 the afternoon of June 5 when his 2000 Honda CRV crossed the center line and struck a 1985 Ford F-150 driven by Ralph McCrary, 52, of Red Oak.

The crash, which occurred near the intersection of LaFayette Drive, killed McCrary and seriously injured Wright, who was in a coma immediately after the accident, police said.

According to the warrants for Wright’s arrest, the collision was not intentional.
