The Augusta Chronicle reports a Richmond County deputy was taken to a hospital after crashing with a Habersham County deputy's patrol car Friday night. The wreck happened as both deputies were helping with Operation Thunder, a 90-day statewide crackdown targeting drunken drivers, speeders and seat-belt violations.
Richmond County sheriff's officials say the deputy hurt in the crash suffered injuries that weren't life-threatening. His name was not released.
The traffic crackdown in Richmond County began Feb. 14. Since then authorities have written hundreds of citations.
