Charleston, WV (February 10, 2025) – There were confirmed injuries resulting from a vehicle collision in the Charleston area on Saturday, February 8. Early that morning around 8:10 a.m., emergency responders were dispatched to the crash site at the intersection of 50th Street SE and Venable Avenue SE. At least one person involved in the collision was hurt.
At this time, the severity and number of the related injuries have not been confirmed. Attending medical personnel provided aid to the injured parties. Ambulances were available to transport the crash victims to local hospitals for further support. The roadway was temporarily closed as emergency responders were present.

Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
West Virginia High-Speed Crashes
People who drive too fast put everyone else on the road in danger, and they are more likely to cause a major car accident. Exceeding the speed limit makes it harder to control a car, and drivers need much more clearance to come to a full stop. Over 10,000 people are killed every year in the United States due to high-speed impacts. This is more than 25 percent of all road deaths on average. Speeding is a common habit in New Mexico, and it’s the cause of more than 30 percent of fatal crashes in the state.
