Burkesville, KY - Trooper Ricky Cross is investigating a two vehicle injury collision that occurred on January 17th, 2020 at approximately 9:45 PM CST on Glasgow RD, eight miles west of Burkesville, at the intersection of KY 100.

Gingerich crossed into the west bound lane in an attempt to avoid the collision but was unsuccessful as Emberton steered back into the west bound lane at the same time, causing the vehicles to collide head on.

Emberton and her 19 year old passenger, Phillip Ford of Gamaliel, KY and Gingerich, along with his 15 year old passenger were all transported to Cumberland County Hospital by EMS for non-life threatening injuries.

Good weather for spicy chicken/sweet potato stew

Spicy chicken and sweet potato stew warms up everyone.

Stews start with a base of liquid, meat cut into cubes, and typically some type of root vegetables. Categories typically include brown stews, in which the meat is browned in fat before the liquid is added, and white stews, in which it is not.

Although stews are generally considered a pedestrian dish, there are some, like beef burgundy, that are fine-dining-approved.
