Timothy Wright, a well-known gospel singer and New York pastor, was critically injured in an auto accident in central Pennsylvania. The accident killed his wife and injured his 14-year-old grandson. Both Wright and his grandson were taken Geisinger Medical Center in Danville, Pennsylvania.
Wright, his wife and grandson were returning home from Detroit when they were hit by a driver going the wrong way on I-80. The driver in the car going the wrong way was also killed. A passenger in a third car involved was injured, but was in fair condition following the crash.
In addition to being a gospel performer who has released over a dozen albums, Wright is pastor at Grace Tabernacle Christian Center in New York City. His latest album, Jesus Jesus Jesus came out last year. Will Bogle, a New York music agent called the news “completely deflating.”
Auto accidents kill and injure thousands of people each year. The 4th of July weekend is especially dangerous due to the amount of people on the road. If you or a loved one has been injured in an auto accident, please contact an experienced injury lawyer in your area.
