Two men were killed and another injured Friday evening in a head-on collision involving a van and a pickup on Oak Ridge Road south of its intersection with Henry Road, Warren County Sheriff Martin Pace said.
Pace said the men, ages 56 and 42, were in a 1985 GMC van traveling north, when it collided head-on with a southbound 2012 GMC Sierra pickup driven by a 31-year-old man. He said the driver of the truck was taken to Merit Health River Region Medical Center. The driver of the truck’s condition was not known.
The names of the three victims in the collision have not been released pending notification of their families.
Pace said firefighters from Vicksburg and Culkin Volunteer Fire departments had to use the Jaws of Life to cut all three out of their vehicles.
He said the sheriff’s department is investigating the crash.
