Reports circulating online claim that Cornelius Leray Dixon, 56, and Jamari Tre’vionne Dixon, 22, both reportedly from Birmingham, Alabama, died after being struck by a vehicle on Interstate 65.
However, the reported deaths could not be independently confirmed through authoritative sources reviewed for this report.
Reported I-65 Crash
According to the circulating account, the incident allegedly happened late Sunday night on northbound Interstate 65 between Finley Boulevard and 32nd Avenue North in Birmingham.
The report claims that Cornelius Dixon and Jamari Dixon were walking along the interstate when they were struck by a vehicle.
The same account states that both victims suffered fatal injuries and were pronounced dead at the scene.
Those details, however, have not been independently confirmed by an official accident report or a verified statement from the Jefferson County Coroner’s Office available to this publication.
Identity of the Reported Victims
The names being circulated are Cornelius Leray Dixon and Jamari Tre’vionne Dixon. The report identifies Cornelius as 56 and Jamari as 22 and describes them as father and son.
Available Jefferson County public records contain individuals with the name Cornelius Leray Dixon, but those records alone cannot establish that the individuals are the people involved in the reported crash.
Investigation and Confirmation
Authorities have not been located in the available sources confirming the reported fatal collision or publicly identifying the two men as victims.
Because the information remains unverified, additional details about the circumstances of the crash, the driver involved, possible charges, toxicology findings, or other investigative developments should not be treated as established facts.
Family and Funeral Information
No independently verified obituary, funeral announcement or memorial-service information was located for Cornelius Leray Dixon or Jamari Tre’vionne Dixon in connection with the reported crash.
If the deaths are officially confirmed, obituary, memorial and funeral arrangements may be announced by the family at a later time.
Until such confirmation becomes available, the reported deaths should be treated as unconfirmed.
