On Saturday, Nov. 12 at 5:14 p.m., two people were transported to a trauma center following a single-vehicle high-speed wreck in the 12500 block of Cottageville Highway, north of Cottageville.

The southbound Nissan Versa crossed the highway and entered the northbound ditch where it struck a driveway culvert. The small car became airborne and received heavy damage. Both unrestrained occupants received multiple traumatic injuries.

Two Fire-Rescue ambulances responded. A 10-year-old male was transported to the children’s trauma center at Shawn Jenkins MUSC in Charleston. The child’s mother was transported to the adult trauma center at MUSC.
