91-year-old High Point woman dies after Friday crash
Edna Gordon, 91, died after a Friday crash at South Main Street and SW Cloverleaf Place. Police said the two drivers were alert and no charges will be filed.
High Point police said Edna Gordon of High Point died at the hospital after a crash Friday around 4 p.m. at South Main Street and SW Cloverleaf Place. Gordon was 91, and police said no charges will be filed in connection with the wreck.
The department said the crash involved two vehicles. Officers found both drivers alert, and both spoke with police at the scene. WFMY News 2 identified Gordon as one of the two drivers in the crash.
The deadly collision happened on South Main Street, one of High Point’s major corridors and a stretch already tied to ongoing road work. The city has a U-5896 / B-5353 S Main St project underway, and a separate Plan South Main study covers the 1.49-mile stretch from Business I-85 to W. Green Drive, along with Vail Avenue connections to the Heritage Greenway and Guilford Technical Community College. FOX8 has also reported detours tied to major construction on South Main Street.
The crash also lands in a part of High Point that the city has been studying for years in pedestrian planning. A High Point pedestrian plan prepared in March 2017 is part of the broader safety backdrop on streets that carry cars, older drivers and people walking to nearby homes and businesses.
For residents looking for the crash paperwork, the City of High Point says public copies of accident and incident reports are available through its Police to Citizen site. The department says it can take 48 to 72 hours for reports to appear online.
