Area Two-Vehicle Accident Leads to Woman's Death

By Connect-Bridgeport Staff on May 30, 2024

FROM RANDOLPH COUNTY SHERIFF ROB ELBON 
 
A two-vehicle crash was reported to 911 on Saturday May 25 around 12:37 p.m. in Randolph County. The crash was at the Crystal Springs intersection of Harrison Avenue and Route 33.
 
First responders were dispatched to the scene and were advised of confirmed injuries and entrapment. Randolph County Sheriff;s office deputies Elbon and Wolfe arrived on scene and West Virginia State Police units arrived to assist. Elkins Fire Department personnel completed extraction of one victim and Randolph EMS transported both drivers to Davis Medical Center.
 
The Sheriff’s Office requested the State Police crash reconstruction team respond to the scene for investigation purposes for speed and skid distance. The striking vehicle was a dually hauling a farm trailer loaded with cattle. A local farm owner offered to hold the cattle until someone could pick them up for the owner.
 
One victim of the crash Louanna Carr of Elkins was later pronounced deceased by the Medical Examiner at Davis Medical Center. The Randolph County Sheriff’s Office would like to express our deepest sympathies to the victims family and will continue to pray for their peace during this tragic time.
 
This crash is still under investigation.
