“It was bad; it was bad… I hate it,” she said. “Prayers for the family. It’s just so sad that this continues to happen on this road. It has been an issue for years.” Julia Hill said
She says she did not hear the accident happen but saw the aftermath.
“There was a white truck that was pointed toward the ditch, and a red maybe SUV pointed towards the truck,” she explained. “Now, the truck was kind of across the white line, but into the ditch. It wasn’t really like mangled-up stuff, it was just a wreck — which we are used to because it happens a lot of time. We’ve seen a lot of wrecks up here, so.”
