When I arrived on the scene shortly after 9 p.m. Monday I saw a crashed up car and a man holding a baby. I was at the intersection of Highway 113 and Highway 31 in Flomaton where a vehicle had plowed into the side of an 18-wheeler.
First glance at the car told me this was a bad wreck. It was bad, but it could have been worse. The man I saw holding the baby turned out to be the driver of the car and the baby was his 8-month old daughter who was properly secured in a child restraint seat in the back seat.
The man wasn't hurt, the mama suffered injuries, the baby was smiling. All were either wear...
