Lee’s Body Shop employee Eric Tindoll prepares to hook a tow line to a Chevrolet Cavalier owned by Rodney Smith after the car left Interstate 20 East near Bovina during heavy rain at about 11 a.m. Monday. The car carrying Smith and two unidentified passengers ended up in a ditch in the median during the storm that dumped 1.08 inches of rain on Vicksburg. Rescue efforts brought traffic almost to a standstill. Smith was treated and released from River Region Medical Center, said hospital spokesperson Allen Karel. (Katie Carter*The Vicksburg Post)
