A tragic traffic accident on Valentine’s Day left one person dead and two others injured in Albany, Georgia. The Albany Police Department (APD) responded to the scene around 9:20 p.m. at the intersection of W. Oglethorpe Boulevard and S. Cleveland Street. According to local authorities, the crash involved a black Land Rover traveling eastbound on W. Oglethorpe Boulevard and a white Honda Accord going southbound on Cleveland Street at the time of the collision.
The front-seat passenger of the Honda Accord, identified as Virginia Grant, 41, tragically succumbed to her injuries sustained in the accident. The driver of the Honda suffered an injury to his left leg, while the driver of the Land Rover was transported to Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital for minor injuries and is now in stable condition.

Accidents like these serve as a stark reminder of how quickly lives can be forever changed. For those involved, having access to an official accident report is crucial. Accident reports document key details, such as weather conditions, driver statements, and investigator observations, which are vital when filing insurance claims or seeking compensation. Without this report, proving fault and securing fair compensation becomes significantly harder.
