JAMESTOWN WOMAN KILLED IN HEAD-ON CRASH TUESDAY

A Jamestown woman died Tuesday following a traffic accident on Memory Garden Road in Fentress County. The THP reports that 61 year Norma H. Dodson was killed after her 2014 Ford Focus was stuck head-on by a 1999 Dodge Durango driven by 44 year old Johnnie M. Robbins of Jamestown. According to the authorities, Robbins lost control in a curve. Neither driver was wearing a seat belt and in the reporting officer’s opinion safety restraints would have made a difference. Citations are pending.   This is the fourth traffic fatality in Fentress County this year. According to the THP Crash Data, Cumberland County leads District 6 in traffic fatalities this year with nine fatalities to date.  For the entire District 6 made up of fifteen counties, sixty-five lives have been lost due to auto accidents thus far in 2014.
