Hopkinsville man hurt in Trigg accident

A Hopkinsville man was injured in a single-vehicle accident Friday morning in Trigg County.

Trigg County Sheriff’s Department Major Jimmy Godair investigated and says 51-year old Tony Clark of Hopkinsville had been westbound in the 6200 block of Rockcastle Road when he swerved to miss a deer.

His vehicle went off the road, struck an embankment, went airborne and came to rest back on the road.

Clark was taken by EMS to Trigg County Hospital for neck and back pain.
