A Vicksburg woman and a Redwood man died in separate one-vehicle wrecks near Vicksburg Thursday.

Cheryl A. Monk, 52, 2200 Mount Alban Road, was southbound on Lee Road near Golding Boulevard around 4:20 p.m. when she lost control of the Ford Ranger she was driving.

Hours later, at about 11:30 p.m., Brian K. Greer, 46, 9950 Mississippi 3, was killed when the Yamaha motorcycle he was riding hit a bridge support at the intersection of U.S. 61 and Mississippi 3 in Redwood.

Monk, who was alone in the pickup, was pronounced dead at the scene from head and chest injuries by Warren County Coroner Doug Huskey.

Sheriff Martin Pace was at the scene. &#8220She ran off the road, slid sideways and impacted a driveway,” Pace said. &#8220That caused the vehicle to overturn.”

The pickup came to rest on its roof in a ditch. &#8220She was partially ejected from the vehicle, and she was not wearing her seat belt,” Pace said.

Fisher Funeral Home has charge of arrangements, Huskey said.

A resident of Lee Road who lives near the accident scene said wrecks along this stretch of road are common.

&#8220I’ve had four accidents in my front yard,” she said.

The Mississippi Highway Safety Patrol responded to the Greer accident. &#8220It looks like he lost control,” said Trooper Wayne Smith. He said authorities were summoned to the scene by a passing motorist.

Smith said the two people stopped and attempted to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation, &#8220but there was nothing they could really do.”

Huskey said Greer was also pronounced dead at the scene. An autopsy is expected tonight, he said.

Greer was wearing a helmet, but Smith said he was not sure how long Greer may have been at the accident scene before being discovered and that the accident remains under investigation.

Greer was an employee of Batesville Casket Co. He is survived by his wife, Dorian, one son, two grandsons and his parents. Huskey said Glenwood Funeral Home will have charge of arrangements.

Thursday’s wrecks were the fifth and sixth fatal accidents in Vicksburg and Warren County in 2007.

Also Thursday, a four-vehicle wreck on South Frontage Road injured two people.

Police said a Toyota Sienna struck a car in its own lane, left the road briefly, swerved back and hit two more cars coming the opposite way at a bend near the stoplight at Halls Ferry Road.

Alfred Reed, 17, no address available, the van’s driver, was admitted to River Region Medical Center and was in good condition this morning, a hospital spokesman said.

Katherine Day, 61, 688 Mallet Road, was treated and released from the hospital after the van hit her vehicle head-on.

Before slamming into Day’s Toyota Corolla, Reed hit an oncoming Cadillac and spun it 180 degrees, knocking off a tire.

&#8220They were both slowing to come around the corner and he just tattooed them,” said Roy Hall of the Vicksburg Police Department.

Tammi Boone of 1361 Mount Alban Road was going home after dropping her daughter off at Kroger when she saw a minivan passing her car on the median.

&#8220All this grass and stuff was coming at my window, then I realized there was a car to the right of me.”

Reed will be cited for speeding, recklessness, driving with no proof of insurance and driving without a seat belt, Hall said.
