Four Injured In Three Separate Wrecks On Interstate 24

Three separate wrecks on Interstate 24 in Christian County sent four people to the hospital Thursday morning.

Christian County Sheriff’s deputies say a vehicle driven by Kristie Baley of Tennessee hydroplaned and hit the cable barriers at the 84-mile marker causing the vehicle to overturn into the roadway and injuring Baley and two kids.

After the first wreck, traffic in the westbound lanes was reportedly backed up causing a van to run into the back of a tractor-trailer at the 86 mile marker injuring the driver and causing the van to catch fire.

A third wreck with no injuries also occurred in the backup traffic at the 89-mile marker.

Deputies say all the injuries are believed to be non-life-threatening but they all went to the hospital to be checked out.

The first wreck was reported to law enforcement just before 8 am.
