Three Involved in Wreck

Three people were involved in a two car crash Wednesday on Highway 70 west near Smithville.
Trooper Tommy Cooper of the Tennessee Highway Patrol told WJLE that 74 year old Mary Young of Cookeville was driving west on Highway 70 in a 2002 Mercedes when she pulled into the turning lane and then crossed into the path of another vehicle while turning left onto the old Snow Hill Road. The other vehicle, an eastbound 2009 Ford Escape, was driven by 77 year old Leonard Shively of Cookeville. His wife, 75 year old Mable Shively was a passenger.
Young was taken by DeKalb EMS to DeKalb Community Hospital. The Shively’s were apparently not injured.
