Single vehicle wreck on Vega Road

A single-vehicle wreck on Vega Road just before 8 a.m. Dec. 31 sent the Miles Encina of Lamar County to Macon Medical with injuries. The patient was out of the vehicle and transported by ambulance to Macon Medical after first responders pulled the driver from the vehicle about 20 minutes after the crash. According to a witness, the car’s tires left the road and the car turned sideways, sliding off the roadway and wrapping around two trees like a horseshoe. The witness said it was like a bomb exploded when the car hit the tree and debris flew in all directions.
