Two people were killed this week after a head-on collision on a stretch of interstate in Kentucky, state troopers said.

The two-vehicle accident occurred at approximately 10 p.m. on I-165 at the 2.2-mile marker north bound, Kentucky state police said.

A preliminary investigation indicates that a silver Chevrolet Cruze operated by Angela Dockery, 44 of Morgantown, was traveling south on I-165 in the north bound lane.

The Chevrolet Cruze struck a yellow Dodge Charger operated by Kinsley Demontigny, 23 of Henderson, TN head on. Dockery was pronounced deceased at the scene. Demontigny was transported to the Bowling Green Medical Center, where she later succumbed to her injuries.

The investigation is ongoing and is being led by Trooper Michael Wathen. He was assisted at the scene by the Warren County Sherriff’s Office, Medical Center EMS, Bowling Green Fire Department, the Warren County Coroner and other KSP personnel.
