CHATTANOOGA, TENN – Just before 1:30 PM, Sunday, October 14, 2007, the
Chattanooga Fire Department received a call of a motor vehicle accident with
injuries in the 8100 block of East Brainerd Road. Quint 21 responded and
found three vehicles involved, two of which collided head on.
The accident occurred in the westbound
lanes of the four lane roadway. The two cars that met head on were a white
Ford Mustang GT and a silver Infiniti G35. The Mustang was facing eastbound
and the Infiniti westbound. A third vehicle, a silver Nissan Altima was also
facing westbound and suffered only minor damage to the left front.
The male operator of the Infiniti was
treated at the scene by medics with Hamilton County EMS and transported to
Erlanger Hospital. His injuries, although serious, do not appear to be life
threatening. The driver of the Mustang suffered some bumps and bruises but
denied transport. No one in the Altima was injured.
The cause of the accident is under
investigation by the Chattanooga Police Department.
