The two-vehicle collision on Friday, December 15, at 8:30 a.m., occurred on Highway 351 close to the intersection of Greene County Road 721, according to Sheriff Brad Snyder.
One car was overturned and “engulfed in flames” when first responders arrived, according to Snyder.
“At this time we can confirm that there were two fatalities involved in this crash,” Snyder said in an 11:30 a.m. update. “One person has been airlifted to a Memphis hospital for treatment.”
