April 16, 2021 - State Highway 7 West just east of CR 1246 was the scene of a major single-vehicle crash April 13, 2021 at around 7pm.
According to Texas Department of Public Safety State Trooper Daniel Dellenger, a blue 2002 Jeep Liberty driven by Rebecca Eddins, 36, of Center was eastbound on State Highway 7 at a high rate of speed when it left the roadway to the right.
After the Jeep traveled off the roadway, it began to flip and did so several times before colliding with a tree in the front yard of a residence where it came to rest facing westbound.
Eddins and her passenger Joshua Eddins, 33, were each removed from the vehicle. She was transported by emergency personnel to an ambulance and he walked, of his own volition, to a separate ambulance.
Rebecca Eddins remains at this time in a Tyler hospital for treatment.
Assisting at the scene were West Shelby County Volunteer Fire Department and Shelby County Sheriff's Department personnel.
