Vicksburg, MS (March 2, 2022) – On Tuesday afternoon, March 1, a two-vehicle collision took place at an intersection in Vicksburg.
Vicksburg Police confirmed that the accident happened in the afternoon hours at the intersection of Clay Street and Old Highway 27. Two vehicles were traveling in the area when they allegedly entered the intersection at the same time, causing them to collide with each other. The vehicles involved in the accident were badly damaged and had to be towed from the scene.
Several local responders, including paramedics and fire crews, were immediately dispatched to the scene to help those in need. One or more victims were hurt in the collision. The injured parties were taken to local hospitals for treatment, though their identities and conditions are not known at this time.
Due to the severity of the accident, a large portion of the road was blocked at the intersection. Police urged those in the area to use caution until the scene was cleared.
No further details have been released but the investigation continues.
Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families in hopes of a full recovery.
