Crash in Shelbyville Kills One and Seriously Injures Another

Posted on Dec 09, 2008

Friday night on La Grange Road in Shelbyville , Kentucky an accident took the life of Thomas A. Alvarado. Alvarado was 38 years old and a resident of La Grange, Kentucky.

The accident occurred when the car he was driving was struck by another car being driven by Roy L. Mullins of Monroe, Ohio. At this point it is not known why the car being driven by Mullins crossed the center line. The consequence of this crossover was striking Alvarado’s car head on. Investigations show that the airbags in both cars deployed at the time of the impact and also that Alvarado was wearing a seatbelt at the time.

Responders to the accident had to use the “Jaws of Life” to remove both drivers who had been trapped in their cars. After 45 minutes both were removed and airlifted to University Hospital in Louisville where Alvarado died on Saturday and Mullins remained in the hospital.

According to the police the road was dry and free of any hazards which may have caused the accident. The investigation is ongoing.
