Car Takes Wrong Turn into Creek

April 3, 2016 - Emergency personnel were dispatched to a single-vehicle crash on Wednesday, March 30, 2016 when a vehicle took a wrong turn into a creek.

According to Texas Department of Public Safety State Trooper Taylor Buster, at around 5:30pm a red 2014 Dodge Dart driven by Stephanie Diane Maggard, 39, of Timpson was traveling on CR 4088 during rainy conditions and was going to turn onto CR 4020. When Maggard made the turn, it was early and dart drove into a creek, coming to rest against a culvert.

When Shelby County Sheriff's Deputy Bradley Horton and DPS Trooper Buster arrived, it was determined the driver was uninjured as a result of the crash. No injuries were incurred by the vehicle either and Hopkins Towing & Recovery pulled it from the creek allowing the Dart to be driven away from the scene.
