Two people injured in Henry County crash
Two people were injured in a Sunday afternoon accident on I-75 North in Henry County.
The crash closed all lanes of the highway before I-675, at exit 227, just after 1:30 p.m. All lanes reopened by 3:35 p.m.
The accident involved a GMC Sierra and a Saturn passenger car, said Sgt. Joey Smith, a spokesman for the Henry County police.
Smith said the female driver of the Saturn was extricated from her vehicle and air-lifted to Atlanta Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries. Another person was taken to Piedmont Henry Hospital.
A preliminary investigation shows that the Saturn driver lost control and struck the median before bouncing back into traffic, Smith said. The Saturn was then struck by the GMC.
