MBA Hwy 67 B North/Bypass 040708 - e003 2446

Shortly prior to 7 PM the Walnut Ridge Emergency Services dispatched the Walnut Ridge Fire Department as well as a area ambulance to the junction of Highway 67 B North and the bypass. A single vehicle motor accident had occurred when the driver of a North bound car either fell asleep or blacked out and drifted across the highway and ran into the South bound ditch. During the driver's wild ride the vehicle hit a field entrance road and became airborne and landed upright in the ditch on the other side of the road.
