A Cadiz woman was injured in a single-vehicle rollover wreck in Lyon County early Sunday morning about 8 miles south of Eddyville.
According to a news release from Lyon County Sheriff Brent White, he responded to reports of a crash on KY 274 at approximately 6 a.m. Investigation determined that a vehicle driven by 33-year-old Tiffany Barbre of Cadiz had been traveling southbound when she failed to navigate a curve and went off the roadway. The vehicle impacted multiple trees and overturned down into a 35 foot embankment.
The vehicle came to a stop on its top and Barbre had to be extricated from it. She was transported to Lourdes Hospital in Paducah for treatment of her injuries.
Sheriff White credited OnStar’s Automatic Crash Response system for helping first responders find Barbre, as the vehicle was severely damaged and far off the roadway, and Barbre was trapped upside down and injured with no way to communicate.
