Two killed in separate Friday accidents



A Talladega man and a Munford man were both killed in separate single-vehicle crashes Friday evening.
Alabama Senior Trooper Chuck Daniel identified the Talladega man as 39 year old Byron Covett Hammonds.
Daniels said  “He was killed when the 2007 Suzuki motorcycle he was operating struck a deer and caused his motorcycle to leave the roadway.  “Hammonds was pronounced dead at the scene, on Plant Road five miles west of Talladega.”
Daniel identified the Munford man as 59 year old Willie Lee Whitson.
Daniels said “Whitson was killed when the 2011 Ford Ranger he was driving left the roadway and struck an embankment. “He was not wearing a seatbelt and was pronounced dead at the scene, on Stockdale Road five miles northeast of Talladega.”
Both accidents are still under investigation.
