Cullman County woman dies in Morgan County wreck involving Gadsden man

A Baileyton woman died Monday afternoon in a three-car crash in Morgan County that involved a Gadsden man, according to a news release from the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency.

Brenda R. Reed, 78, was injured when her 1999 GMC Sonoma was struck at 5:39 p.m. by a 2017 Nissan Titan driven by 34-year-old Aaron S. Barnes of Gadsden on Alabama Highway 67 near Hulaco Road, about 5 miles west of Arab.

Reed's truck overturned and left the roadway after the initial impact, ALEA said.

Barnes' vehicle then struck a 2009 Nissan Rogue driven by Shawn S. Wheeler, 59, of Huntsville.

Reed was taken by helicopter to Marshall Medical Center North in Guntersville, where she later died of her injuries.

There was no word on any other injuries.

Troopers with ALEA's Highway Patrol Division are investigating the crash.
