Four injured in crash near Level Plains

LEVEL PLAINS—A three-car wreck on U.S. Highway 84 near Level Plains led to four people being hospitalized Thursday evening.

A van driven by an 81-year-old female was attempting to cross Highway 84 at the Coffee and Dale county lines when it was struck by a truck traveling West on 84, according to Alabama State Trooper Anthony Ellis.

After the initial collision, the two vehicles struck a car as they were sliding off the road.

The driver of the truck was airlifted to Flowers Hospital, while three other victims were transported to a local hospital.

Troopers did not release the names of the victims Thursday night, so no condition update was available.

The wreck happened at about 4:30 p.m.

The windshield of the truck was completely busted out, and the van showed significant damage as well.
