Sheriff's department spokesman Jeff Strickland has also identified him as Nicholas Parrish.
Col. Strickland said Parrish was responding to a "serious injury" crash on Candler Highway near Leland Road at the time of the wreck.
"The preliminary investigation indicates that as (he) rounded a curve at Construction Drive he encountered vehicles stopping for the original crash," Col. Strickland said. "(Parrish) became involved in a traffic accident that included three other vehicles."
All of the injuries were non-life threatening.
The two accidents closed Candler Highway from Calvary Church Road to Leland Road for about two hours, according to Strickland.
