One person has died in a fiery crash that occurred around 1:30 p.m. today near Weoka Bridge on Titus Road in Titus.

Titus Fire Department personnel responded to a call concerning the wreck that involved a vehicle that left the roadway and struck a tree. The vehicle was then consumed by flames.

“The wreck is being worked by the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, so this will be their investigation,” Elmore County Sheriff Bill Franklin said.

Franklin said it appears the vehicle left the roadway for an unknown reason, traveling about 420 feet before striking a tree. One person was in the vehicle, he said, and is deceased.

We have reached out to ALEA and will update when more information is available.
