ROCKY FORD, Ga. (WTOC) - A fatal crash occurred near Rocky Ford this morning (February 2, 2026) in Screven County, according to the Screven County Sheriff.

The Screven County Sheriff said this was one of multiple accidents after the winter storm that came through our area, saying that on the same morning another accident occurred where a vehicle driven by a pregnant woman slid off into a ditch.
