A driver suffered a serious injury after hitting a cow on Falls of Rough Road (Hwy 79).

Monday night at approximately 5:20, Grayson County Deputy Caleb Owens, the Falls of Rough Fire Department and EMS responded to the accident in the 14500 block of Falls of Rough Road.

Upon arriving at the scene, first responders found that a Toyota Camry, being driven south by 59-year-old Jiawei Yan, of Fisher, Indiana, struck a large (black) cow that was standing in the roadway.

The cow then rolled up on the vehicle’s hood and windshield and off the car.

Falls firefighters had to assist Yan, who suffered a serious leg injury, in exiting the Toyota. He was transported by EMS to Breckinridge County Memorial Hospital.
