GREENE COUNTY, TN — A crash involving a tractor-trailer Thursday morning in Greene County injured two people, including a 10-year-old, according to WJHL.
While WJHL did not provide the exact location of the wreck, a Tennessee Highway Patrol (THP) report indicates it occurred on a southbound stretch of State Highway 93 at about 10:40 a.m.
Preliminary details show the semi-truck was traveling southbound when it veered out from its lane and collided with a GMC Terrain SUV heading northbound.
The impact brought both vehicles to a stop along the highway’s west side.
Officials said the driver of the SUV and their 10-year-old passenger were both hurt as a result of the crash. First responders had the child transported by airlift to UT Medical Center for injuries considered non-life-threatening.
No injuries to the driver and passenger of the big rig have been reported.
An investigation remains open and ongoing, but the THP confirmed that charges are pending.
