Four people were transported to Baptist Memorial Hospital-Golden Triangle Thursday with non-life threatening injuries following a two-vehicle accident at the intersection of Crowe Road and Sonia Drive, according to a deputy with the Lowndes County Sheriff’s Office. The accident occurred at about 8 a.m. when two pick-up trucks collided.

The fire, which started at approximately 9:05 a.m., was hard to fully extinguish because of the summer heat and lack of volunteer responders, said Lowndes County Fire Coordinator Sammy Fondren. The home, located at 804 Crowe Road, was owned by Leon and Ethel Harris, who were not injured in the fire.
