Woman killed in collision in McCreary County

PARKERS LAKE, Ky. (WTVQ) – A woman was killed Monday morning in a collision on US 27 near the Tucker Road intersection in McCreary County, according to Kentucky State Police.

Investigators say 32-year old Tiffany Renfro, of Parkers Lake, was driving a 2015 KIA Optima north on US 27 just before 9:00 a.m., when she crossed the center line and collided with a 2016 International tractor-trailer.

KSP says Renfro wasn’t wearing a seat belt.  They say she died at the scene.  State Police say the truck driver wasn’t hurt.

Traffic was rerouted around Tucker Road for most of the day due to a fuel spill and accident reconstruction.  The road reopened late in the day.
