ACSO: Ice storm accidents closed parkway for 7 hours Friday Multiple commercial vehicle collisions resulted in one injury and the shutting down of LBN parkway on Friday morning. By Sheriff Josh Brockman Adair County Sheriff's Office On Friday, February 4, 2022, at 05:01am, the Adair County Sheriff's Office was dispatched to the 41 mile marker east bound on the LBN Parkway. Adair 911 had received reports of multiple collisions in the area. Upon arrival and investigation, Deputy Chandler Staten found that a 2015 Jeep Cherokee operated by Bethany Lickeig, 29, of Edmonton, had stopped on the parkway because the roadway was blocked by an overturned 2000 Freightliner tractor and trailer operated by Juan Diaz, age 52, of Tennessee. A third vehicle, a 2019 Freightliner tractor and trailer operated by Calvin Rayford, 45, of Alabama, came upon collision and was unable to stop. Rayford's semi and trailer jackknifed and began to slide sideways down the parkway eastbound and struck the 2015 jeep Cherokee operated by Lickeig. Lickeig was transported by Adair County EMS to TJ Health Columbia for treatment of injuries. Neither of the operators of commercial vehicles were injured in the collision. The collision prompted the closure of the parkway at the Edmonton exit. Columbia Police Officers and additional Sheriff's deputies were called out, and the parkway was closed down at the 46 mile marker for nearly 7 hours. All other motorists between Edmonton and Adair that were stuck in traffic during the collision ended up sitting for hours. Those vehicles were eventually cleared off the roadway, out of concern that vehicles would begin to run out of gas, which could leave the operators stranded and without heat in frigid temperatures. Ice on roadways was a contributing factor in the collision for all the vehicles. Many other vehicles slid into median but required no report due to lack of damage. The Sheriffs Office is continuing the investigation, and thanks Adair County EMS, the Columbia Police Department, the Columbia-Adair County Fire Department, Kentucky State Police, Emergency Management Director Mike Keltner, and the KY State Highway Department for all their help.
