A Limestone man
was killed Saturday morning when the pickup truck he was driving was hit head-on by a sport utility
vehicle on Tennessee Highway 107 in Washington County's South Central
community.
A Tennessee Highway Patrol dispatcher, this morning,
identified the man who died as Curtis L. Williams, 69, of Frank Stanton Road,
Limestone.
Williams, according to the THP dispatcher, was driving a 1993
Nissan pickup truck east on Highway 107 (the Erwin Highway) when a westbound 2001 Ford Explorer
driven by Walter E. Dial, Jr., 59, of Elizabethton, crossed the center line of the road and struck
the pickup head-on.
Williams was killed and both Dial and his passenger,
Nita Dial, 59, were injured in the collision, according to the
THP.
However, the dispatcher had not information about the extent of the
injuries suffered by the Dials.
The accident remains under investigation
by Trooper Suzanne Masoner.
