The driver of the tanker truck was killed, and now police have arrested a suspect they say caused the wreck and fled the scene.&nbsp;Arkansas State Police (ASP) reports that 59-year-old James Rotenbury of Russellville died in the crash after the Arkansas Department of Transportation initially reported no injuries.&nbsp;According to the ASP , a witness at the scene told troopers that an unknown vehicle entered I-40 from the 35 mile marker on-ramp and pulled out in front of the tanker truck Rotenbury was driving. Rotenbury tried to take corrective action and swerved to the left and ran off the roadway. Rotenbury then entered the north side road ditch and tried to steer back into his lane.
