Geddes, N.Y. — A driver killed early Sunday in a crash that closed ramps from Interstate 690 to John Glenn Boulevard has been identified as a 36-year-old town of Clay man, according to the Onondaga County Sheriff’s Office.

Kevin Haynes was driving a 2001 Honda Prelude on I-690 West at 4:30 a.m. when he attempted to exit onto the John Glenn Boulevard ramp, and his car went off the road and hit a culvert, sheriff’s spokesman Thomas Newton said. A culvert is a pipe that channels water under a roadway or the ground.

After the crash, Haynes’s iPhone notified 911 of the crash, according to police dispatches. Emergency crews responded and confirmed a car had rolled over in a ditch, dispatchers said.

The ramps from I-690 to John Glenn Boulevard were closed for several hours after the crash, but have since reopened.

The cause of the crash remains under investigation, Newton said.
