Decatur, GA (November 30, 2022) – Around 7:03 a.m. on the morning of Wednesday, November 30, a car accident with injuries took place on a highway in Decatur.
According to Decatur Police, the accident happened in the northbound lanes of I-85 close to the area of exit 66, Flat Shoals Road. Police confirmed that several vehicles were traveling in the area when they collided with each other due to reasons that are not entirely known. The involved vehicles were badly damaged as a result of the accident and had to be towed from the scene.
Several Decatur responders, including paramedics and fire crews, were called to the scene to help those in need. One or more parties were hurt as a result of the collision. The injured parties, who have not yet been formally identified, were taken to local hospitals for treatment. Their conditions are not yet known.
The right lane of traffic was fully blocked in the area for some time. This led to delays until police were able to clear the scene.
