Truck Wreck In Bullitt County Injures Three

From The Louisville Courier-Journal:

"A multi-car wreck involving a log truck on Highway 44 in Bullitt County on Monday, June 15, left at least three people injured and halted traffic on the road between Shepherdsville and Mt. Washington.

Three people were seriously injured in the crash, which involved a log truck and four other vehicles, said Bullitt County Sheriff's Chief Deputy Danny Thompson.  He said the injuries included broken bones, but he did not know whether they were life-threatening.

An emergency dispatcher in Bullitt County said calls about the wreck in the 3200 block of Highway 44 began coming in at 5:50 p.m.

The driver of a Dodge Durango was attempting to make a turn at the intersection of Watergate Drive and 44 when it was struck from behind by the log truck, Thompson said. The Durango then hit the car in front of it and the log truck struck two vehicles traveling in the eastbound lanes.

The injured were taken via helicopter and ambulance to University Hospital, the dispatcher said. She did not know how many people were transported in total.

Investigators were being called to the scene to determine what caused the accident."
