Accident Hospitalizes 2, MOSCOW, June 28, 2019 - At approximately 10:25 am on June 28, 2019, a black 2012 Nissan Sentra, driven by Betty Morris, 59, of Livingston, was south-bound on US-59. As Morris was about to pass the south end of Loop 177, a silver 2012 GMC Sierra pickup, driven by Logan Kosina, 24, of Corrigan, was north-bound on 59 and attempted a left turn onto Loop 177 (directly in front of Morris). Morris' vehicle slammed into the passenger's side of Kosina's pickup. The impact pushed Kosina's vehicle to the corner of the intersection (into the grass). Morris' vehicle came to rest facing east at the entrance of 177. Allegiance Ambulance Service was dispatched to the scene along with the Corrigan Volunteer Fire Department, Sergeant Jason Paske with the Polk County Sheriff's Office, several game wardens and Corporal Ramey Bass and Donny Akers with the Texas Highway Patrol. Both Morris and Kosina were transported by ambulance to CHI Livingston Memorial Hospital with undisclosed injuries. One lane of traffic on the south-bound side of 59 was blocked during investigation and cleanup. Kosina was cited for failure to yield. Both vehicles were recovered by Riley Wrecker Service out of Corrigan.
