Graves County rollover collision on US 45 sends one to hospital

One person was sent to the hospital following a two-vehicle collision on US 45 in Graves County on Tuesday. 

The Graves County Sheriff's Office said the accident occurred between KY 849 and KY 1241.  

Deputies said 49-year-old Michael Ladd of Brookport, IL was in the left lane when he came up behind a vehicle in the right lane driven by 28-year-old Harley Stephens of Hickory.  

Ladd's vehicle reportedly drifted into the right lane and struck Stephens’ vehicle in the left rear. The collision caused Ladd’s vehicle to go airborne and roll over, coming to rest on its wheels.  

Ladd did not report any injuries from the collision. Stephens was transported to Baptist Hospital Paducah for evaluation.
