A wreck near the Mt. Hebron Road and Jim Fox Road intersection last night resulted in fatal injuries.
23 year old Jeffrey A. Newman was flown from near the scene to an area hospital following the 8:43 pm wreck, where he later died.
A Tennessee Highway Patrol report indicates a 2017 KIA driven by Newman was traveling west on Mt. Hebron Road approaching a curve. The vehicle crossed the centerlines, left the roadway and struck a tree. Newman was extricated from the vehicle then flown from a landing zone at Mt. Hebron Church to the Johnson City Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.
In addition to the THP , the Greeneville Emergency and Rescue Squad, Greeneville/Greene County EMS, Sunnyside Volunteer Fire Department and Greene County Sheriff’s Department also responded.
