A tragic two-vehicle collision in Lebanon, Kentucky on Monday has claimed the lives of a Peru man and his daughter, as confirmed by the Kentucky State Police. The collision occurred on State Road 2154 in Marion County at approximately 12:48 p.m., prompting emergency personnel to respond to the scene.
Preliminary investigations revealed that Johnathan Maldonado, 41, was traveling south on Saint Rose Road when he attempted to cross Lebanon Bypass. Unfortunately, he failed to yield the right of way, resulting in a collision with a freightliner operated by 58-year-old James Haag from Wisconsin, who was traveling west. Haag was unable to avoid the collision as Maldonado’s vehicle entered the intersection. Troopers from the Kentucky State Police Post 15 were the first to arrive at the scene.
Tragically, both Maldonado and his daughter Jocelyn, who was a juvenile passenger, succumbed to their injuries and were pronounced deceased at the hospital. Another juvenile passenger, identified as Maldonado’s other daughter Mackenzie, was also transported to the hospital with serious injuries. Haag, on the other hand, suffered minor injuries and was taken to the hospital for treatment.
According to reports, Maldonado and his daughters were on vacation visiting family when the collision occurred.
