A wreck on Interstate 24 in Christian County severely injured two people Saturday morning.
Christian County Sheriff’s deputies say a westbound car struck a truck that was parked on the side of the road with a construction worker in the back of the truck.
The crash caused the construction worker to be ejected from the truck and the car ran off the road and into the median. The driver of the car had to be extricated from his vehicle by Christian County Rescue.
The driver of the car and the construction worker were both flown to Nashville hospitals with severe injuries.
Deputies say the car was in the emergency lane driving within the construction area.
The crash happened just before the Fort Campbell Boulevard exit just after 3 a.m.
