Several people are recovering from injuries after a wreck that snarled traffic on Highway 365 in Cornelia Monday afternoon. It happened at the intersection of 365 and Duncan Bridge Road.

Webb and three of the four passengers in his pickup were transported by ambulance to Habersham Medical Center.
Officials say Webb and 67-year-old Charles Reed of Allentown, PA, suffered non-incapacitating injuries. 63-year old Debbie Weeks of Sparks, GA, and 77-year-old Ada Webb were transported for possible injuries. 69-year old Bobby Mercer of Millville CA, was uninjured.
The Fieldale driver, 56-year-old Gregory Bruce Beck of Mt. Airy, complained of injury but was not transported by ambulance.
