Two men escaped serious injury Tuesday in a Liberty crash.
According to Trooper Bobby Johnson of the Tennessee Highway Patrol, 78 year old William Reynolds of Liberty was in a 2002 Chevy Avalanche crossing Highway 70 from a parking lot to Choctaw Ridge Road when he pulled into the path of a 2009 Dodge Ram pulling a boat driven by 36 year old Anthony Monroe of Nashville who was west on Highway 70. The Dodge Ram hit the Chevy Avalanche in the right front knocking both vehicles off the right side of the roadway. The impact of the collision caused the boat being pulled by Monroe to be ejected off the trailer onto the roadway.
Both drivers were transported to Ascension Saint Thomas DeKalb Hospital.
