Chattanooga police have released the name of the woman killed in an accident at the intersection of Grubb Road and Highway 153 Wednesday. 29-year-old April Fryar of Soddy Daisy died when the Chevy Blazer she was riding in crossed into oncoming traffic. 35-year-old James Floyd was driving the Blazer and suffered minor injuries in the wreck. According to a news release, witnesses tell police that the southbound traffic light was in the process of turning red and other cars were slowing down to stop. For an unknown reason, the Blazer Floyd was driving failed to slow down and then swerved to avoid rear-ending other vehicles. That's when the Blazer went into opposing traffic and collided with a tractor-trailer. Police spokesperson Nathan Hartwig says charges may be filed pending the outcome of the investigation.Photo by Barry Schultz, NewsChannel 9
