EARLY COUNTY: Fire, EMS, and Law Enforcement are on the scene of a motor vehicle crash on US 84 in Early County. Reports are two children and one adult have been killed in the crash.

UPDATED @ 8:46 PM

While I am on the scene I am not bothering authorities who are busy with wreck investigation. The east bound lanes of Highway 84 in front of Jakin Vault are closed. The west bound is now a two lane.

Multiple emergency units and fire are on the scene along with Early County Coroner Todd Hunter.

There is a vehicle in the median covered with sheets that emergency officials appear to be removing victims from. Unconfirmed reports are three fatalities on the scene. A wrecker is loading one vehicle on the roll back.

As soon as more information is available we will update.

UPDATED @ 9:54 PM

Reports are the pickup was traveling west in the east bound lane of traffic. UNCONFIRMED by authorities, but information is a lady and two children killed in a east bound car style SUV. The driver of the truck was injured and transported to a Dothan hospital

According to bystanders, again unconfirmed by authorities, alcohol on the truck could be a factor in the accident.
