Christopher Hubbard Obituary, Death – The driver’s identity has been released by the Omaha Police following a fatal crash on Monday night. According to the Nebraska Department of Transportation, the incident occurred on the northbound lanes of I-480/Hwy 75 near Dodge Street, resulting in a car catching fire just before 7:30 p.m. The OPD stated that the driver of a 2000 Ford Ranger veered off the road, crossed both lanes and entered the grass median before rolling over twice and igniting.
Unfortunately, the male driver, Christopher Hubbard, 23, was ejected from the vehicle as he was not wearing a seatbelt. Despite receiving CPR from both citizens and medics at the scene, he was pronounced dead at Nebraska Medicine. As a result, the on-ramp from Dodge Street to I-480 and Hwy 75 northbound was temporarily closed.
