No one was injured after a car hit a refrigerator north of Melcher-Dallas.

The accident occurred around 11:30am Monday morning along Highway S-45 near Pratt Street. According to Melcher-Dallas Fire Chief Rodney Kennedy, witnesses say a pickup hauling several refrigerators was traveling southbound on S-45 when one flew up into the air and landed in the northbound lane before being struck by a car.

The accident caused the air bag on the vehicle to deploy but none of the three people in the vehicle were injured. Traffic was slowed to one lane while the scene was cleared and debris was removed from the roadway.

Melcher-Dallas Fire & Rescue and the Marion County Sheriff’s Office responded to the call.
