NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Sunday morning at 4 a.m., the driver of a Chevrolet Malibu was traveling eastbound towards Reynolds Road when it crossed the double yellow line and struck another car — a Ford Focus — head on.
Everyone involved in the crash was taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center for help. However, 26-year-old Christina Holt Maclin, a passenger in the Ford Focus, died at the hospital.
The 63-year-old driver of the Focus and a 23-month-old child in the backseat had non life-threatening injuries.
The driver of the Malibu, 24-year-old Adrian Edwin, also had non life-threatening injuries. A search warrant was obtained for his blood sample after he admitted to consuming alcohol before driving.
September 11, 2001 is a day most associate with terror and tragedy. Austin Pollack shares a story from that day about hope and persistence: the effort to save a little girl’s life – with an organ donation. The problem? The young patient was in Houston, and her life-saving liver here in Nashville. With the grounding of all civilian aircraft, how could it be done? “Nobody ever said this isn’t possible.”
