1957 chevy got creamed on highway 61 right before swap meet.
Did you see it or hear of the outcome. I heard that 2 other cars hit head-on because of it too. Lots of sirens around 7:30.

Just saw the pics on channel 5 news and that's just what happened. The Kia was totaled but NO ONE was seriously injured. Driver of the Kia was on the wrong side of the road and the 57 moved right to miss a head-on with it and got sideswiped. Then the Kia hit the mini-van head-on that was behind the 57.

I had it on the wrong channel. Nothing mentioned on channel 11. Did mention the moving of the Porkys building. This place in Hastings does look kind of neat.
