SAUTEE, Ga. — The passenger in a pickup truck was killed and the driver was injured and faces possible driving under the influence charges following a single-vehicle accident just north of Cleveland late last night.

Christian Culp, 24, died when the 1999 Chevrolet pickup truck he was a passenger in went off Joe Black Road in a curve.

White County Coroner Ricky Barrett said Culp was transported to Northeast Georgia Medical Center where he was pronounced dead at 11:47 p.m.

The Georgia State Patrol is still investigating the accident. The driver of the vehicle, Jeffrey L. Swain, age 24 from Perry, FL, was transported to Habersham Medical Center where the extent of his injuries is unknown at this time.

Corporal Nick Jenkins of Georgia State Patrol Post 6 said via email the vehicle was traveling west on Joe Black Road when Swain lost control. The vehicle then traveled off the right side of the road and into a ditch, striking the ditch with its right front quarter panel. The vehicle rotated clockwise and came to rest facing east on all four tires.
