Update: I-75 has now reopened after the early morning wrong way fatal accident near Ottawa River Road.

Original story: There has been a deadly wrong-way crash on southbound I-75, just south of Ottawa River Road (between exits 208 and 209).

Police say a car was driving the wrong way when they hit another car head-on.  One person has died and, at this time, one other is reported injured.  There is no word on that person's condition. 

I-75 southbound traffic is being diverted onto Alexis Road. You can get back on the expressway near Stickey and Expressway Drive.

We will continue to update this story as it develops.  And Joe Galli will have live reports from the scene on this morning's WNWO Today from 6 until 7 a.m.
