Deputies have released the names of everyone involved in a three-vehicle crash on Interstate 24 in Christian County Monday afternoon.
Christian County Sheriff’s deputies say a van driven by Ashley Oaks of Clarksville was eastbound when it hydroplaned and struck a guardrail ejecting Emily Ratliff and Joyce Vanhoose both of Paintsville out of the back window of the van.
A tractor-trailer driven by Abdi Hassan of Columbus, Ohio, that was behind the van tried to get off the roadway and stop when he was struck from behind by a car driven by Sydney Burke of Oak Grove.
Burke along with Ratliff and Vanhoose were taken by ambulance to Tennova Healthcare in Clarksville. A child that was inside the van also suffered an injury to the face and was transported by private vehicle to the hospital.
Deputies say the full extent of the injuries is unknown. The crash happened just after 6 p.m. at the 79-mile marker.
