A 48-year-old Grannyshee woman was bitten on the hand by a copperhead
Saturday night. Calhoun EMS took the woman to Roane General Hospital for
treatment.
The driver of a motorcycle was injured just south of Walker Road on State Route 16
near Chloe, shortly after noon Sunday. Firemen said the cyclist hit some loose rock,
near the same spot a logging truck wrecked a few weeks ago.
"He was riding with a group of motorcyclists," according to fireman Sonny Lowers
of the Upper West Fork VFD.
He was taken to Charleston Area Medical Center for treatment of injuries by
Calhoun EMS.
