This older model Chrysler New Yorker (owned by Ronald Pool of Livingston) has been parked on the shoulder of 190 West for several days and was struck by another vehicle.
Driver Strikes Unattended Vehicle on 190, SPRING CREEK, February 27, 2012 - At approximately 7:30 pm on February 26, 2012, a burgundy 2008 Ford Expedition driven by Kodieann Parrish, 29, of Livingston, was west-bound on US-190 West. Parrish's vehicle apparently veered slightly to the right and struck an unattended parked older model white Chrysler New Yorker that, according to witnesses had been sitting on the side of 190 for several days. Parrish's vehicle scraped the side of the car as she continued west and left the road to the right coming to rest in the grass. Americare Ambulance Service was dispatched to the scene along with the Onalaska Volunteer Fire Department and Troopers Darwon Evans and Chris Stanbery (both with the Texas Highway Patrol). Kodianne Parrish was checked by Emergency Personnel from Americare and released at the scene. Traffic on 190 was partially blocked during investigation and cleanup. According to Trooper Evans, no citations were issued and the white car that was parked on the side of the road was legally parked. According to Trooper Stanbery, the unattended vehicle was owned by Ronald Pool of Livingston. Both vehicles were recovered by George White Wrecker Service and will be stored in Onalaska.
