A crash in Grayson County over the weekend resulted in the death of an Indiana woman.
The Grayson County Sheriff’s Office says the preliminary investigation indicates shortly after 11 a.m. Saturday a car being driven by 53-year-old Amy Embry of New Albany was traveling north on KY 79/Falls of Rough Road when for unknown reasons the vehicle drifted into the southbound lane.
A southbound car being driven by Jerry Walker of Caneyville attempted to avoid the vehicle, but Embry’s vehicle struck the southbound car head-on at a slight angle near the 7100 block of KY 79, coming to rest in the roadway facing north. A third vehicle driven by Jeremy Lawson of Falls of Rough also heading south struck the Walker vehicle after the initial collison.
Embry was transported by EMS to Owensboro Health Twin Lakes Medical Center, where she was later pronounced dead. Walker and a passenger were also transported to Twin Lakes with non-life-threatening injuries, while Lawson told emergency responders he was not injured.
