At 8:02 AM, Thursday morning, sources at the scene report the driver of this southbound Kia Forte attempted to cross Highway 138, Winchester Road, on Highway 293, at the old Pine Hill.

An eastbound GMC Yukon collided with the rear of the Kia, spinning it around, taking down road signs.

The Yukon continued east, severing a power pole to a nearby store, then colliding with the dumpster, causing it to overturn.

Drew County Sheriffs deputies, and OEM responded, along with MASI who transported a victim from the Kia.

Rangel removed the Yukon. The Kia was self recovered by its owner.

At 7:20 AM, MPD dispatch received a report of a car versus log truck collision at East Gaines aand Gabbert Street.

Sources at the scene report that a Honda van was attempting to pass a log truck, in a one lane road area of Gaines Street, at the intersection when the log truck, who was in the proper lane, attempted to turn left, colliding with the Honda.

The collision occurred during the intersection, and the vehicle came to a stop, in the two Lane section of Game Street, as shown in the photos.

Also, technically, there is a state statute against passing another vehicle, and an intersection.

MPD worked the crash.

The driver of the Honda was transported to DMH by MASI.

Reggie‘s wrecker removed the Honda.

OEM also responded to assist.

One of the most confusing areas of Monticello Traffic, aside from the town Square, is E. Gaines St.

When you leave the Square, on E. Gaines St., it is one-lane traffic, with parking spaces on both sides of the street.

When it crosses, Gabbert Street, at the chamber of commerce, THEN it becomes a two-lane highway, without parking places.

UAM pulls off an amazing reverse sweep advancing to the semi-finals.
