Drivers and passengers escaped injury in a twocar crash that erupted into flames Friday afternoon in rural Toombs County. The incident occurred at approximately 3:52 p.m. at the intersection of Georgia Highways 152 and 86. According to a press release from the Toombs County Sheriff’s Office, deputies responded to a call reporting fire at the scene of an accident. First responders arrived to discover a vehicle driven by Sierra Sanders of Cobbtown, in a ditch on Highway 152 and a vehicle driven by David Pascale of Byron on fire in the ditch on Highway 86.
