One person is dead after a single-vehicle collision in Grayson County.
According to a release from the Grayson County Sheriff’s Office, shortly after 7 a.m. on August 8 the sheriff’s office responded to the 3,700 block of Shrewsbury Road for a reported injury crash with entrapment.
The sheriff’s office says their investigation indicates 59-year-old Mary E. Haynes of Leitchfield was driving north on Shrewsbury Road when for unknown reasons the vehicle swerved, crossed the southbound lane, and struck a ditch. The vehicle overturned and travelled down the ditch, striking a deep culvert on the driver’s side front end before coming to rest on its top facing east in the ditch.
The sheriff’s office says Haynes was not wearing a seatbelt and was thrown about inside the vehicle. She was pronounced dead at the scene by the Grayson County Coroner’s Office.
In addition to the coroner’s office, the sheriff’s office was assisted at the scene by the Leitchfield Volunteer Fire Department and Grayson County EMS.
