Man Decapitated In Bizarre Wreck
Police Say Driver Kept Going
A Cobb County man is charged in a car wreck in which his passenger was decapitated.
Police say John Kemper Hutcherson, 21, was driving under the influence of alcohol Saturday night when his truck struck a utility pole. His passenger, Francis Daniel Brohm, was partially ejected. His head was severed by the pole's support wire, police said.
