ATLANTA — Rep. Barry Loudermilk and his wife have been injured in a car wreck after returning home to Georgia to assist with the Tropical Storm Irma recovery effort.
In a statement from Loudermilk’s office, it said the congressman and his wife were involved in a two-car wreck in Knoxville, Tennessee. They were driving along Interstate 40 when they were hit from behind by another car.
Loudermilk’s car then went off the road and flipped multiple times.
“Both the Congressman and Mrs. Loudermilk were transported to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries where they were treated and released,” the statement said. “The Loudermilks immediately acknowledged God’s hand in protecting them from serious injury, and they would appreciate your thoughts and prayers as they recover.”
Loudermilk reprents Georgia's 11th Congressional District.
