Welcome back. It's 11.33 right now.
We have breaking news coming into the Fox 5 Atlanta
newsroom about a pedestrian accident in Sandy Springs.
Want to get over to our assignment
desk right now, our assignment manager,
Tanya Mendoza, is standing by. So,
Tanya, this is just happening. So, what do we know right now?
That's right. So Sandy Springs Police actually tweeted about it
and I have the tweet on X pulled up right here.
A traffic alert, heavy police presence over at 7645 Roswell Road.
The road is shut down. We have our helicopter there right now.
We're sending a photographer on the ground.
It says that it's a motor vehicle and a pedestrian involved.
We'll have much more on this accident and what happened a little later.
But that's a busy area, Paul.
I know that you're familiar with the Sandy Springs area.
I believe there's some businesses nearby,
and it's a heavy traffic area.
So that's where we have the helicopter right now.
You can see right there they're investigating,
and we will get more details a little later.
Near Morgan Falls Road and Trowbridge Road.
OK, it looks like they have one of the lanes or no,
it looks like the other side's open, but the one side is shut down.
Well, it looks like they've diverted one lane all
the way over to the other side of the road.
So it looks like the entire one way is shut down,
but they are diverting cars over in that area.
And wow, we're zooming in right now.
And you can certainly see where that crash happened right there.
So, Tanya, thank you for the update.
I know you'll keep us posted on that.
Yeah. Bring us more details, Tanya. Thank you. We'll see.
We'll see you soon.
