UPATED- March 31
Bowie Police report the accident occurred at 2:15 on March 27 at Mill and Wise. Officer Cody Stone investigated. Kimberly Gall, 41, Nocona, was driving a Hyundai west on Wise. A second vehicle, a Chevy pickup driven by Virgil Hutson, 73, Nocona, was west on Wise with a third vehicle, a Toyota Corolla driven by Frankie Pair J., 42, Bowie, also going west on Wise. Stone said Hutson turned north onto Mill on an unprotected green light. As Gall entered the intersection her vehicle made contact with the passenger side of Hutson’s vehicle causing it to spin 180 degrees into a parking lot of a business and then back onto Wise where it stuck the back passenger door of the third vehicle. Gall reported leg pain but refused treatment at the scene. No other injuries were reported. A crosswalk signal was knocked down as the truck spun into the lot.

At a Sept. 28 called meeting of the Saint Jo City Council, officials unanimously approved a resolution stating its opposition to the “siting, permitting, construction or operation of data centers and similar hyperscale computing facilities within the city limits or the city’s extraterritorial jurisdiction.”
