‼️🚨Douglas 911🚨‼️

2 Vehicle accident on A Ave. And 18th St. A black Ford ranger and a golden Chevrolet Malibu.

The street is blocked off from 17th and 18th st. And A Avenue. In Douglas, Az.

From what we were told the brakes of the Ford Ranger failed while driving, and the driver of the vehicle was unable to engage the E-brake fast enough and crashed into the Golden Chevy. Somehow causing the tire of the ranger to fall off (visible in the photo).

Emergency services have left the scene. It is now only occupied by Douglas Police Department.

We will update with more information when we recieve it here on Douglas Today
