Kitten rescued at wreck scene

By Vanessa Overholser - Staff Writer

A one-vehicle injury accident occurred Tuesday afternoon when a green Chevy Cavalier approached 2600 Cranston Road and flipped on its side.

The driver, Sherry Wilson of Morehead, said she just got off the road, according to officials at the scene.

When emergency agencies arrived, Wilson was out of the car. She told fire rescue that her kitten was trapped inside.

“They sent me in to rescue the cat,” said Morehead Fireman Derek (Scooter) Fannin. “The cat was trapped on the driver’s side in the console area.”

Fannin said the cat did not appear to be frightened when he went to rescue it. He told Wilson he would take care of the cat until she got back from St. Claire Regional Medical Center, where she was taken by Morehead-Rowan EMS. Her injuries are unknown at this time, said KSP Trooper Chad Wagoner.

Agencies that responded to the accident were Morehead Fire Rescue, Morehead-Rowan EMS and the Rowan County Sheriff’s Office.

The accident remains under investigation by Wagoner.
