A police report has just been released on a pedestrian vs. vehicle incident which took place in Crossville two weeks ago. According to police, a domestic dispute took place between Ms. Aren Goforth and her grandmother, Ms. Susan Strange at Creekwood Apartments parking lot. A preliminary investigation revealed that Strange was trying to drive away from the area when Goforth attempted to remove children’s car seats from the vehicle. Strange told police that she did not want her granddaughter to take the kids because she was drunk and Strange was afraid that someone else would come and get them and take them someplace unsafe.

According to police reports, Goforth was in much pain. A landing zone was established in the area and Goforth was airlifted to UT Medical Center for further treatment. Her condition was unknown at the time of this report. DCS was notified about Ms’s Goforth’s children and charges are pending further investigation.
