A Selma woman was killed in a two-vehicle accident last week.

According to the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, Selma’s Ethel W. Harris, 73 and Rashard T. Adkins, 36, of Jones were both killed in Millbrook. The 2006 Lincoln Mark LT, which Harris and Adkins were passengers in, collided with a 2018 Dodge Ram 2500 driven by Raymond Hawthorne Jr., 37, of Pike Road.

The ALEA report states that Harris and Adkins, who were not using seat belts, were both pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the Lincoln, Mary Adkins, 71, of Jones, along with two other passengers and Hawthorne were all injured and transported to area hospitals.

The crash occurred on Cobbs Ford Road at Interstate 65, approximately one-tenth of a mile west of Millbrook. The preliminary investigation indicates that the Lincoln was actively fleeing the scene of a previous crash that occurred near the intersection of Cobbs Ford Road and U.S. 82.

The accident remains under investigation by ALEA.
