Clarksville, TN – On October 29th, 2012, around 4:00pm, a 2006 Buick Lacrosse, driven by Laurence Pugh, 73, was turning right off of Old Trenton Road to go south on Wilma Rudolph Boulevard, failed to yield to an oncoming 96 Chevy Silverado, driven by Albert Allen, 61 traveling in the right lane.
The Lacrosse knocked the Silverado into the left lane hitting a 94 Nissan pickup driven by Chase Hunter, 19, causing the pickup to flip onto its side.
