On Wednesday, May 22, at approximately 5:39 p.m., deputies and emergency services personnel responded to the area of 7636 N. State Road 135, in reference to a single motor vehicle roll-over crash with injuries and entrapment.
Once on the scene, deputies determined that Timothy Reynolds, age 57 of Seymour, was traveling north on N. State Road 135. Reynolds was driving a 2002 GMC Sierra pickup truck when he drove off the east edge of the roadway. Reynolds over-corrected his vehicle, causing his vehicle to go into a skid and travel off the west side of the roadway, down an embankment and roll over onto the passenger side before coming to a rest.
Two passengers in the pickup truck had to be extricated by members of Monroe and Jefferson Township Volunteer Fire Departments.
Timothy Reynolds refused treatment at the scene.
Passenger Roxie Reynolds, age 77, was transported by Washington County Ambulance Service to University of Louisville Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Passenger George Reynolds, age 82, was transported to St. Vincent Hospital by the Washington County Ambulance Service for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.
Lieutenant Wayne Blevins is the investigating officer and was assisted by Detective Brad Naugle, Lieutenant Lucas Gray, Deputy Paul Reyling, Deputy Hailee Lopotosky and Sheriff Brent Miller.
State Road 135 N. was closed for a brief period of time.

In an effort to bring together their members, staff, and those passionate about gardening they have planted a community garden. The garden is “for those that want to learn to be able to better the place we live.”

There are multiple types of peppers, lettuce, tomatoes, cabbage, sweet corn, green beans, green onions, some herbs, okra, cucumbers, zucchini, broccoli, brussel sprouts, and swiss chard.
In conjunction with the harvest of these delicious vegetables, the Y will be having classes on nutrition and canning.
Inside the lobby they will be having their annual “Give what you can, take what you need market”. If anybody has extra produce from their garden, they are encourage to drop it off.
All plants and tools were donated by Ace Hardware of Salem, Tractor Supply, Mark Worley, Tom Baker and staff.
The garden is located behind the YMCA parking lot at 1709 N. Shelby St. in Salem.
