A crash on Lone Oak road early Tuesday morning between a vehicle and a Skyjack lift sent one to a local hospital.

According to Paducah Police, 53-year-old William D. Mangrum, of McCracken County, was moving a Skyjack lift along Lone Oak Road to a parking lot. Mangrum said the lift stalled, blocking the northbound lanes of Lone Oak Road.

At the same time, 43-year-old Jennifer F. Lykins, also of McCracken County, was northbound, and attempted to swerve, but the top of her vehicle hit the lift.

Mangum was thrown from the lift. He was taken to Baptist Health-Paducah for treatment of injuries.

Police said it was dark at the time of the collision, and they did not see any lights or reflective markers on the lift.
