Two Adults, One Child Injured In Head-On Crash
Two adults and one young child sustained injuries after becoming involved in a head-on crash in the Leoma area Tuesday afternoon.
Authorities reported that the crash occurred around 1:00 p.m. on U.S. Highway 43 in the Dunn area. The driver of a southbound Ford Taurus, a male, age 45, reportedly crossed into the path of oncoming traffic. The Taurus collided head-on with a Chrysler van driven by a female, age 68.
Both drivers, as well as a two year old passenger in the Taurus, were airlifted to Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville. While both drivers sustained serious injuries, authorities said the boy was not seriously injured.
