According to a report by the Tennessee Highway Patrol, Corey Douglas, 33, McKenzie was driving a 1999 Acura on U.S. 79 when he collided head-on with a 2017 Toyota 4-Runner driven by Amanda Crowe, 28, of Martin.
Douglas died at the scene while his daughter, Jovi Garner, 10 was injured and airlifted from the scene. Garner is recuperating with an injury to her arm.
