JESUP, Ga. (AP) — State troopers say a driver in southeastern Georgia swerved to avoid hitting a deer and hit another car head-on, killing a 30-year-old Jesup man.

Police tell the Florida Times-Union (http://bit.ly/15yw9zD) a 52-year-old man was driving along Oglethorpe Road in Wayne County when he swerved into oncoming traffic to miss a deer that was in the road Friday afternoon.

Police say the man's car hit a 1992 Saturn being driven by 30-year-old Russell Silas Smith, who was killed in the crash.

Authorities say charges will not be filed until after an investigation by a crash reconstruction team.
