Wreck in Front of Clayton City Hall

A single vehicle accident occurs on the curve in front of Clayton City Hall.

The accident occurred just before 5 p.m. Thursday, and the one vehicle involved was a 2003 Yamaha scooter driven by Carl Allen Bleckley, of Clayton.

The accident reports states Bleckley was traveling East towards downtown Clayton when he veered off the right side of the road and made contact with the guardrail before coming to rest in the middle of the road.

The wreck caused some delays to traffic, as Assistant Police Chief Andy Strait explained.

“The east bound traffic was diverted through the parking lot of City Hall,” said Strait. “The west bound was diverted through Bynum Street to the west side of Highway 76.”

Bleckley was transported to Mountain Lakes Medical Center for the injuries he sustained.
