The Elizabethtown Police Department is investigating a fatal accident that occurred on the Lincoln Parkway Sunday.
Elizabethtown Police Department Public Information Officer John Thomas says shortly before 11 a.m. on June 2, emergency responders were dispatched to the intersection of Lincoln Parkway and Sportsman Lake Road due to a reported serious injury collision.
Upon arrival, responding units found an unresponsive adult female in a white Toyota Highlander, along with a juvenile female who sustained minor injuries. The other vehicle was a black Toyota RAV 4, with the lone occupant being a male driver who also sustained serious injuries.
The driver of the Highlander was taken to Baptist Health Hardin, where she was pronounced dead. The driver of the RAV 4 was transported by air to the University of Louisville Hospital, where he is in critical condition.
Thomas says the preliminary investigation indicates that the Highlander was heading south on Sportsman Lake Road while attempting to cross Lincoln Parkway. The RAV 4 was heading west on Lincoln Parkway and entered the intersection, striking the driver’s side of the Highlander.
The victims are not being identified at this time. The Elizabethtown Police Department Accident Reconstruction Team’s investigation of the crash is ongoing.
