Martin Couple After Sunday Wreck on I-85

A Martin woman is hospitalized after a wreck on I-85 over the weekend.

It happened Sunday afternoon in the Banks County near SR164.

According to a report on Access North Georgia, a 2000 Dodge Dakota pick up was headed northbound on I-85 when its left rear tire blew out, causing the driver to lose control.

The truck left the road and overturned several times.

A 24-year old female passenger, who was pregnant, was air lifted to Northeast Georgia Medical Center in Gainesville. The driver, identified only as a 30-year old male, was also taken by ambulance to Northeast Georgia Medical Center.

No word on the condition of either the driver or the female passenger.

Two children in the truck, ages 1 and 4 were hospitalized and treated for minor injuries.  Troopers say the occupants were from the Martin area, but their identities have not yet been released.
