Monroe, GA – Two-Vehicle Crash with Injuries at US-78 & Youth-Monroe Rd 


Monroe, GA (November 30, 2022) – Around 4:45 p.m. on the afternoon of Monday, December 28, a two-vehicle crash with injuries occurred at a Monroe intersection. 

According to Monroe Police Department officials, the accident happened at the intersection of US-78 and Youth-Monroe Road. Police confirmed that two vehicles were traveling in the area when they allegedly entered the intersection at the same time. This caused the vehicles to collide with each other, leading to extensive damages. 

Paramedics, fire crews, and several other responders were immediately rushed to the scene to help those in need. It is believed that multiple victims were hurt and needed assistance from EMS crews. The parties were then taken to local hospitals for further treatment of their injuries. 

One eastbound lane of traffic was blocked at the intersection for some time, which led to delays until police cleared the scene. 

The investigation into the circumstances of the accident continues. Police will update with more information as it becomes available. 

We offer our warmest thoughts and prayers to the parties recovering from injuries caused by this accident.
