On Friday, Shelbyville Fire and Police were called to 2102 Poncianni Avenue for a personal injury crash. A woman, Edith McGraw, was trapped under a blue mini van. According to Shelbyville police an officer spoke with McGraw’s husband Elmer, age 93, who said he was trying to put his minivan back into the garage when he accidentally hit the gas instead of the brakes.
