A 54-year Gatesville woman and a 3-month old passenger in her freightliner truck were injured
yesterday afternoon in a wreck in Tyler County. DPS reports Sherri Leach was traveling
northbound on Highway 69 when she lost control of the truck due to inclement weather and
rolled over several times. The child was in a child safety seat, but the seat was not secured. They
both were ejected from the vehicle. Both were airlifted to Christus St. Elizabeth Hospital in
Beaumont where they were listed in serious condition.
