A Drew County Sheriff’s Deputy responded to the report of a traffic hazard, on Highway 278, near the Tillar turn.

The boat, with a flat trailer tire, is parked close to the side of the road, so please use caution with oncoming traffic in that area. The driver is expected to return shortly.

Last Tuesday, around 4:50 PM, the driver of a Ford Edge was pulling out of the Western Sizzlin parking lot, but did not see the northbound Chevrolet Impala, on Highway 425 North. The impala struck the Edge, lifting it on top of the Chevrolet’s hood.

MPD worked the crash scene. SEEMS responded and checked out both victims, who declined medical attention.

Highway 278 E. is currently closed and being detoured, because of an automobile accident near the HWY 35/Airport Road intersection.

The highway is closed, please use an alternate route, most likely Winchester Road going north, then east, to Airport Road.
