Willie Spence, a former finalist on ABC's "American Idol," died Tuesday in a car crash, according to the Tennessee Highway Patrol. He was 23.
A preliminary report from the Tennessee Highway Patrol found that Spence's Jeep Cherokee was driving east along Interstate 24 in Marion County at about 4 p.m. Tuesday when it left the roadway and hit the back of a tractor-trailer that had pulled off onto the shoulder.
Spence, who was from Dunwoody, Georgia, was wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash, the report said.

Robert Morris, founding pastor of Gateway Church, a megachurch in Southlake, Texas, has been indicted on five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child, stemming from alleged incidents dating back to the 1980s, the Oklahoma attorney general's office announced Wednesday. We are aware of the actions being taken by the legal authorities in Oklahoma and are grateful for the work of the justice system in holding abusers accountable for their actions. We continue to pray for Cindy Clemishire and her family, for the members and staff of Gateway Church, and for all of those impacted by this terrible situation.
