Early yesterday morning, an accident involving a tractor and Ford Thunderbird occurred on southbound I-77 around the North Carolina and South Carolina border.

The Ford became trapped underneath the trailer of a tractor in front of it and was dragged down the interstate until the tractor was able to stop.  Fort Mill firefighters arrived at the scene and helped the driver and passenger of the Ford out of the vehicle.

The driver of the Ford was uninjured, but the passenger was taken to a local hospital for unspecified minor injuries.

Police officials cite the tractor and Ford coming too close to each other as the cause for the accident.
