The woman sustained injuries to her neck, back and arms. Her son, who was in a car seat, escaped with no serious injuries.
FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. — The mother of a 9-month-old baby who survived a head-on crash is calling it a Christmas miracle.
Chelsea Evans was struck by a drunk driver Sunday night, leaving her and her baby lucky to be alive.
Evans and her fiancé are calling their survival nothing short of divine intervention.
“It’s a miracle because the force of the impact could have easily taken our lives. However, God stepped in and saved us,” Evans said.
The crash happened around 9 p.m. on Gillis Hill Road. Evans says the drunk driver crossed the center line and hit her vehicle head-on.
“It was me and my 9-month-old son in the car. The impact was so severe that the airbags deployed, and my car battery died. I couldn’t open the door to get to my son,” Evans recounted.
