Two injured in late night crash


web posted June 26, 2009
MERRIWETHER – A two car collision on Sweetwater Road at Murrah Road Extension snarled traffic for over half an hour Thursday night when the driver of a Ford Focus station wagon attempted to make a left turn from the northbound lane of Sweetwater Road onto Murrah Road Extension when the driver of a Ford Explorer slammed into the rear of her car.

The 911 call of the crash came in to dispatchers shortly before 11 pm sending EMS, Merriwether First Responders, Sheriff’s Deputies, and the State Highway Patrol to the scene. Both drivers were able to exit their vehicles on their own power but were later immobilized and taken to MCG for treatment of possible injuries.

The driver of the Explorer was said to be suffering from a possible medical condition attributing to her failure to brake to avoid the Ford Focus.

Both women were transported from the scene by ambulance within minutes. Neither of the women were considered to be suffering from serious injuries.

Both vehicles were moved from the roadway and traffic was restored in about half an hour as the Highway Patrol investigated the collision.

Due to a camera malfunction photos from the scene are not available.
