LOCKLAND, Ohio — A woman is dead after a crash involving a semi on I-75 in Lockland, Ohio State Highway Patrol said.

According to police, a 2013 Acura TL rear-ended a semi around 9 p.m. Tuesday near the Shepherd Lane exit.

The passenger was ejected from the Acura and pronounced dead at the scene, investigators said.

The Hamilton County Coroner's Office identified the victim as 21-year-old Juelle Walker.

The driver of the Acura was taken to Bethesda North Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, police said.

The driver of the semi was not injured, according to an OSHP press release.

The accident is still under investigation, OSHP said.

All southbound lanes of I-75 were shut down for hours Tuesday night but reopened early Wednesday morning.

The crash came just hours after a significant backup on I-75 and I-71 South due to a crash involving a South Dearborn school bus filled with children.
