Two injured in Fort Campbell Boulevard accident

Two people were injured in a crash Wednesday afternoon in front of Lowe’s on Fort Campbell Boulevard.

Hopkinsville police investigated and determined 53-year-old Penny Russell of Hopkinsville was southbound on the Boulevard and ran the red light at the Lowe’s entrance, telling officers the sun was in her eyes and she had believed the light was green.

She collided with a vehicle driven by 79-year-old Richard Stagner of Hopkinsville, who had a green light as he pulled onto the Boulevard from the Lowe’s parking lot.

Russell also grazed the rear-end of an SUV driven by 21-year-old Ashley Howard of Hopkinsville.

Russell was taken by EMS to Jennie Stuart Medical Center with a neck injury and Stagner went by ambulance to Jennie Stuart with multiple injuries.

Howard was not hurt in the crash.
