NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Emergency management officials say the latest winter storm claimed three lives in Tennessee.
Tennessee Emergency Management Agency spokesman Dean Flener says all three victims died in weather-related traffic accidents. One in Wilson County killed a 35-year-old woman Wednesday. On Thursday, an accident in Dickson County killed a 46-year-old man and one in Campbell County killed a 61-year-old man.
The names of the victims or details of the accidents have not yet bee released.
The late winter storm was the second wintry mix to blanket the state recently. After the first storm hit Feb. 16, 30 people died from traffic accidents, hypothermia and a house fire.
The latest storm dumped up to 14 inches of sleet and snow in some parts of Tennessee, which was under a state of emergency.
