"There were no injuries reported from a two-vehicle wreck that occurred on Turner McCall Boulevard near its intersection with East Ninth Street on Saturday at about 5:20 p.m.

Rome police and Rome-Floyd Fire Department officials responded to the wreck.

According to Pfc. Aaron Thacker:

Kara Winters, 26, of an Alabama Highway address, was driving her dark blue Toyota 4-Runner south on Turner McCall and tried to turn left onto East Ninth Street. She had stopped in the turning lane when Shane Woody, of a Calhoun Road address, was heading south in his older model Dodge Dakota truck, drifted into the turning lane and clipped her rear passenger’s side.

Woody’s truck traveled an estimated 30 yards before he ran head-on into a ditch.

Both Winters and Woody were unhurt from the wreck as well as Woody’s passenger, 20-year-old Melissa Hance.

Thacker said a small child was in the truck with Woody and Hance and was upset by the wreck, but didn’t appear to be injured. She was taken to Floyd Medical Center for a check-up.

Woody was cited with improper lane usage"
