1 dead, 1 injured in Bardstown crash. What we know from Kentucky State Police

A woman is dead, and a man is seriously injured following a motor vehicle collision in Bardstown early June 21, Kentucky State Police spokesperson Scotty Sharp said in a news release.

Around 4:40 a.m., troopers responded to a request from the Bardstown Police Department to investigate a crash near the 800 block of West Stephen Foster Avenue, Sharp reported.

The driver of the vehicle, Jason Wurts, 25, of Taylorsville, was flown to the University of Louisville Hospital for treatment of life-threatening injuries, Sharp said. A passenger in the vehicle, Morgan Williamson, 27, also of Taylorsville, was transported to Flaget Memorial Hospital in Bardstown, where she was later pronounced dead.

A preliminary investigation shows Wurts’ vehicle, a 2022 Hyundai Elantra, struck a tree and an unoccupied vehicle after exiting the roadway. Trooper Jesse Harp’s investigation of the collision continues, Sharp said.

Troopers were assisted at the scene by Bardstown Police, the Nelson County Coroner’s Office and Nelson County EMS.

Watch: Blast brings down Northern Kentucky bridge

COVINGTON, Ky. (WKRC) – The Licking River Bridge was demolished Monday morning in a controlled blast, clearing the way for a replacement structure.

Authorities established a 1,000-foot safety perimeter, closed nearby roads and asked residents to shelter in place before the demolition. The bridge collapsed within seconds of the blast.

“Today we say goodbye to a bridge that has served Kentuckians for nearly a century and we make room for something new. A signature bridge that is safer, stronger and we make room for something new,” Gov. Andy Beshear said. “This region, like the rest of the commonwealth, is evolving, it is booming, it’s economy growing every day. What we’re doing together is building our new Kentucky home.”

The Licking River Bridge is now history after crews brought it down with a controlled demolition Monday morning. (WKRC)

Crews will begin construction on the new bridge after debris removal is complete. The replacement bridge is expected to open in the summer of 2028.
