Crash shuts down Burnt Store Rd and Embers Pkwy; second crash there in a week
It’s not clear how the crash happened. Northbound lanes of Burnt Store Road and eastbound lanes of Embers Parkway are closed.
This is the second crash at the same intersection in less than a week and the third crash there in the last month.
On Oct. 31, there was a two-car crash, which injured five people.
In that crash, police say one car was going north on Burnt Store Road when the other vehicle turned in front of it going east onto Embers Parkway.
Through a public records request Fox 4 found in 2022 there were 5 crashes at the intersection, in 2023, that number nearly doubled, and so far in 2024 it has tripled.
