Heavy fog suspected factor in deadly crash

WHITE HALL — Heavy fog is believed to have caused a crash Tuesday near White Hall that claimed the life of a Carrollton man.

Authorities were called to the two-vehicle crash on White Hall-Hillview Road west of White Hall about 7:35 a.m.

Preliminary reports indicate Lynn Jason Turner, 40, of Carrollton was going east when his vehicle crossed the center line and collided head-on with a car being driven by a 17-year-old Roodhouse girl. The unidentified teen was treated at the scene for minor injuries and a family member took her to Passavant Area Hospital in Jacksonville.

A 7-year-old family member who was a passenger in Turner’s car was taken to Thomas H. Boyd Memorial Hospital in Carrollton and transferred to Cardinal-Glennon Children’s Hospital in St. Louis.

Turner had to be extricated from the vehicle by members of the White Hall Fire and Rescue Department. He was taken to Thomas H. Boyd Memorial Hospital but died on the way and was pronounced dead at the hospital, according to the Greene County Sheriff’s Department.
