Jonathan Elmore, 23, Craig Armstrong, 20, killed, Linda Cowles, 46, seriously injured, airlifted to hospital, after a two-car collision at the intersection of Porter Pike and Petty road near McMinnville.

Two people were killed and one injured Saturday in a two-vehicle accident at Porter Pike and Petty Road.

Warren County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to the accident at 3:08 a.m.

A Mazda truck driven by Linda Cowles, 46, of Smiths Grove, was on Porter Pike when a Chevy Cavalier driven by Jonathan Elmore, 23, of Bowling Green, attempted to cross Porter Pike from Petty Road, causing Cowles to strike the vehicle, deputies said in a news release.

Elmore and his passenger, Craig Armstrong, 20, of Bowling Green, were pronounced dead at the scene. Cowles was flown to Skyline Medical Center in Nashville, where she was in stable condition Saturday afternoon.

Alcohol is not believed to be a factor, but it appeared no one was wearing a seat belt, according to the news release.

The investigation is ongoing.
