According to the Tennessee Highway Patrol, 23-year-old Tyler Lee Thomas Greenwood was traveling east on Highway 70 in a 2019 Ford Fusion when he rear ended a 2007 Nissan 4 door sedan driven by 43-year-old Sandy Ann Spurlin. Passengers with Spurlin were 44-year-old Robert Scott Spurlin and three children ages 12, 2, and 10.
The crash report states that (Greenwood) was traveling east on US 70 following Spurlin. When Spurlin attempted to turn left on Curtis Road, Greenwood failed to stop and struck the Spurlin vehicle in the rear. Both vehicles came to a final rest in the middle of US 70 facing east.

An Alexandria businessman charged in January with four counts of forgery has been indicted by the DeKalb County Grand Jury.
50-year-old Stein Edward Prichard of Brush Creek Road, Brush Creek, manager of Prichard’s Foods, was among 15 people indicted on various charges Monday on the first day of the new term of the grand jury. Others were named in three sealed indictments.
Sheriff Patrick Ray said in January that Prichard is accused of having altered checks of two store customers, changing the actual amounts to much higher amounts.
“People would come into the store and buy goods and would write a check and then he allegedly would change the amount of the check and run it through the bank and used the proceeds for his benefit,” said Sheriff Ray.
The grand jury indictments against Prichard are as follows:
Count 1: “On or about April 12, 2023 Prichard unlawfully and with intent to defraud (victim) of the sum of $5,199, pass a forged writing (check) to Prichard’s Foods which purported to be the act of another (victim) who did not authorize that act”
Count 2: “On or about March 30, 2023 Prichard unlawfully and with intent to defraud (same victim as count 1) of the sum of $3,247, pass a forged writing (check) to Prichard’s Foods which purported to be the act of another (victim) who did not authorize that act”
Count 3: “On or about April 11, 2023 Prichard unlawfully and with intent to defraud (same victim as counts 1&2) of the sum of $935, pass a forged writing (check) to Prichard’s Foods which purported to be the act of another (victim) who did not authorize that act”
Count 4: “On or about December 2, 2023 Prichard unlawfully and with intent to defraud (separate victim) of the sum of $6,205, pass a forged writing (check) to Prichard’s Foods which purported to be the act of another (victim) who did not authorize that act”
