4 Car Crash on Olive Road in Augusta

On July 18th, the Richmond County Sheriff's Office in Augusta responded to a four-car crash on Olive Road. According to authorities, the incident involved a green 1998 stolen Honda Civic being driven by a 12-year-old. The vehicle was traveling south on Olive Road when it ran a red light at the intersection of Martin Luther King Junior Blvd.

As a result of this reckless action, three other vehicles were involved in the crash. Fortunately, no injuries were reported for any of the individuals involved. However, due to the severity of the accident and subsequent investigation, two lanes of Olive Road had to be closed for approximately one hour.

At this time, no further details have been released regarding the circumstances surrounding this incident or any potential charges that may be filed against those responsible for stealing and operating the stolen vehicle.

Authorities are urging anyone with additional information about this incident to come forward and assist with their ongoing investigation.

This serves as another reminder of how important it is for drivers to obey traffic laws and exercise caution while behind the wheel. Running red lights can lead to devastating consequences not only for oneself but also for innocent bystanders who happen to be in harm's way.

The Richmond County Sheriff's Office will continue its efforts in ensuring public safety on Augusta roads through increased patrols and enforcement actions aimed at preventing such incidents from occurring in the future.
