He had been sent to pick them up after they were arrested in Birmingham. As they made the return trip a tractor-trailer crossed the median of I-20 and struck the prisoner transport van head-on. Sergeant Maxey and one of the soldiers were killed in the crash.
Sergeant Maxey, a U.S. Army Vietnam War veteran, was survived by his expectant wife and son. He had served five years with the U.S. Military Police.
