A woman is facing charges in connection to a serious crash that shut down I-81 North near the I-40 split and sent several adults and children to the hospital.

The Tennessee Highway Patrol says 33-year-old Sereena Carpenter was driving a mini van southbound on I-81 near mile marker one when she used a crossover to go into the left lane of the northbound side yesterday (Tuesday) afternoon causing a head-on crash with a pick-up truck.

There were five juveniles in the car with Carpenter. Two of them, along with Carpenter, were injured. In total, 12 people were involved in the crash and seven were taken to the hospital.

There’s no word on their conditions.

Carpenter is charged with failure to exercise due care and traffic control device.
