White County Wreck Sends Seven to Hospital

A White County wreck sent six people to Cookeville Regional and one person in life-flight to Vanderbilt this morning.

Vickie Ralston, 59, of Mt. Washington, Kentucky was traveling south on Highway 111 with five passengers.

Patrick Moran, 62, of McMinnville turned left onto Roosevelt Drive.

Moran’s 2016 Nissan Frontier turned in front of Ralston’s 2013 Chrysler Town & Country.

Ralston struck the Nissan in the front end at an angle and continued to run off the right side of the roadway. The Chrysler went through a fence and hit a curb. The Chrysler came to a final rest on Roosevelt Drive.

The Nissan spun around and came to rest on a highway curb divider in the middle of highway 111.

Moran was transported by EMS Air to Vanderbilt for serious injuries. According to the report, Moran did not wear a seatbelt at the time of the wreck.

Ralston and Mona Lisa McCubbins, 57, of Mt. Washington, Kentucky were transported to Cookeville Regional for minor injuries.

Four juvenile passengers were transported to Cookeville Regional as well.

Moran’s condition is unknown at this time.
