A wreck on Dawson Springs Road in Christian County sent four people to the hospital three with severe injuries Tuesday afternoon.
Christian County Sheriff’s deputies say around 5 pm a car and a dump truck collided head-on at the 5000 block of Dawson Springs Road ejecting one person from the dump truck.
Two people had to be extricated from their vehicles by the Christian County Rescue Team.
The man who was ejected from the dump truck and his passenger along with a female from the car were taken to waiting helicopters to transfer them to Vanderbilt University Medical Center and Skyline Medical Center in Nashville. One other person was injured in the crash and taken by ambulance to Jennie Stuart Health.
The crash remains under investigation but deputies say it appears the southbound dump truck ran off the road and overcorrected before crossing the center line and hitting the northbound car.
