Four Involved in Smithville Wreck

Four people were involved in a two vehicle accident Friday at the intersection of South Congress Boulevard and Vaughn Lane.
Sergeant Brad Tatrow of the Smithville Police Department said 53 year old Pamela Gipson of Murfreesboro was west on Vaughn Lane in a green 1996 Chevy pickup when she failed to yield at the intersection and struck a 2006 Ford SUV in the side. Perry Taylor, the driver of the SUV was traveling south on Congress Boulevard. Gipson’s granddaughters, Dana Black and Haylie Padgett were passengers with her.
There were apparently no serious injuries though Taylor was taken to St. Thomas DeKalb Hospital by DeKalb EMS.
Gipson was cited for failure to yield and for violation of the financial responsibility law (no insurance).
Members of the Smithville Volunteer Fire Department were also on the scene.
