On June 13th, at approximately 9:49 p.m., deputies of the Washington County Sheriff’s Department were dispatched to Saltillo Road, near the intersection of Tarr Road, in reference to a motorcycle crash with injury.
At the scene, investigators observed a 2013 Harley Davidson Road Glide off the west side of Saltillo Road, which had sustained heavy damage.
The driver of the motorcycle was identified as Darren Scott, age 36 of Paoli. The passenger was identified as Alexis Hendricks, age 21 of Elnora.
Witness statements and evidence at the scene indicated Scott had been traveling southbound on Saltillo Road, when he was met by an oncoming, northbound vehicle, which was left of center. The motorcycle traveled off the right-hand side of the roadway, ejecting both Scott and Hendricks. Scott and Hendricks were both flown to University of Louisville Hospital for serious injuries, which are not believed to be life threatening.
Scott and Hendricks were not wearing helmets at the time of the crash.
Deputy Seth Goode is the investigating officer and was assisted by Deputy Hailee Lopotosky, the Washington County Ambulance Service, members of the Campbellsburg Volunteer Fire Department, Air Methods and Air Evac.
