FLORA, Ill.—Flora Police Chief John Nicholson has reported this morning that his Assistant Chief, Guy Durre, is recovering from the collision he was in last night on the outer edge of Flora.
Durre was responding to a car-deer accident on the south side of U.S. 50 not far from Stanford Lane when his cruiser was struck by a semi traveling highway 50.
Durre was air-evaced from the scene and taken to Deaconess Hospital in Evansville. It was discovered that he has a broken left collar bone and severe bruising on his left side. However, he is expected to be released from the hospital today after an overnight stay.
More as we get it; keep checking back.
