March 8 crash takes life of 10-year-old in Clay County
The Texas Department of Public Safety is investigating a one-vehicle crash that killed a 10-year-old girl on March 8.
This accident occurred at 7:45 p.m. on March 8 on Farm-to-Market 2606 in Clay County involving a 2003 Ford Ranger pickup driven by Logan Clay Kelly, 17, Henrietta.
The DPS report states the pickup was traveling northeast on FM 2606 when the driver stated he swerved to miss a coyote and drove off the roadway for a moment. The drive then overcorrected his steering which caused the vehicle to skid sideways and then roll over.
Savannah Sherwood, age 10, Henrietta, was pronounced dead at the scene by a local justice of the peace. The driver was transported by ambulance with non-life threatening injuries.
The DPS reports the road conditions were clear and dry.
On Friday city officials reported the intersection at Rock and Pillar was closed due to a sinkhole in the street. This area has been experiencing major drainage problems for many years damaging culverts and the street asphalt and concrete, with a portion of the street collapsing earlier in the spring. Drivers should avoid this area.
The Nocona City Council approved a trio of Nocona Economic Development Corporation requests and considered infrastructure work questioned by a city council.
Councilors met on June 10. Two of the NEDC requests had already been presented with the timeclock for comment started. With that time limit over, the requests were finalized.
The Type A and B Boards will spend $19,225 at the Indian Oaks Golf Club for equipment, aerifying and top dressing the greens and batteries for rental carts. It also will expend $20,000 to the Nocona Chisholm Trail Rodeo Arena Committee to build new concrete bleachers, railings, fence and platform.
The third NEDC request is a new one related to a Type B board loan of $200,000 to Amy and Chris Nunneley for a new apartment and office construction project.
