A Wednesday morning update from the Elizabethton Police Department says around 4:00 p.m yesterday, a 2001 Chrysler Sebring traveling northbound around the 1800 block of Milligan Highway, traveled into the southbound lane and struck a 2007 Chevy Suburban head-on. Several agencies responded to the scene, and both drivers were transported to the Johnson City Medical Center.
