Two Notasulga men are dead as a result of a head-on collision that occurred this morning, March 25, on Shug Jordan Parkway in Auburn.
Rodney Harcum Sr., 53, and Joel Christopher Finney, 27, were travelling east on Shug Jordan Parkway in a 2008 Pontiac Grand Prix when they were hit head-on by Latasha Hall.
Hall, 26, of Tuskegee, was driving west on Shug Jordan Parkway when her 2003 Honda CRV encountered a 2009 Toyota Corolla driving in the same direction. Hall then struck Finney's vehicle head-on.
Lee County Coroner, Bill Harris, released information that the two men were pronounced dead upon arrival, and the cause was injuries from multiple blunt force impact.
Auburn Fire and EAMC EMS worked for 20 minutes to retrieve Hall from her vehicle. She was then flown to UAB where she is in serious condition.
The Phenix City man driving the Corolla was not injured.
The accident is under investigation and police say that alcohol was not a factor.
The intersection of Shug Jordan Parkway, Wire Road and South College was closed for several hours after the accident.
