One Killed, 20 Injured as 28 Vehicles Collide in Fog

Associated Press

A short but dense bank of fog was blamed for a pileup of at least 28 vehicles that killed one holiday traveler and injured 20 other people Friday morning, officials said. The accident occurred at 8:30 a.m. on Interstate 40, about four miles west of Cookeville, said Highway Patrol Lt. Mason Black. Black said it was unlikely that charges would be filed because the fog made the accident almost unavoidable.
