The Tennessee Highway Patrol is investigating a Monday night one-car crash on Highway 41-A near Christiana Hoovers Gap Road. Reports indicate that the 23-year old driver, Selby L. Lacewell of Manchester, was seven months pregnant.
Tennessee Highway Patrol Lieutenant Bill Miller says that Rutherford County Emergency Medical Services rushed Lacewell to the ER at St. Thomas Rutherford Hospital for pre-natal care as a precautionary measure.
At the scene, Lieutenant Monty Terry reports that the 1996 Toyota Corolla was traveling south on Highway 41-A and as it approached Christiana Hoovers Gap Road, it left the roadway, went down an embankment, crossed a creek and stopped in a field. Amazingly, the vehicle remained on all four tires–never rolling or flipping.
Also injured was 22-year old Michael Martin of Manchester. (WGNS)
