TC woman escapes serious
injury following accident
A The Colony woman was
transported by CareFlite helicop-
ter last Wednesday night to an
area hospital after a vehicle re-
portedly traveling more than 100
mph slammed into her vehicle last
Wednesday night.
Margaret Carole Slezak, a 36-
year-old computer programmer
was taken to Methodist Medical
Center of Dallas with multiple
trauma after a 1990 Chevrolet
Lumina, driven by Jefferson Allen
Wisor, 23, Dallas, allegedly ran a
red light and struck SLezak’s
1993 Ford Escort, according to
police reports.
Slezak underwent surgery
Thursday afternoon and re-
mained in fair condition Friday
afternoon.
Police reports stated that Sle-
zak was driving her Escort north-
bound on Legacy Drive and was
crossing the intersection of State
Highway 121 about 11:05 p.m.
when Wisor’s Lumina collided
with her. Wisor, traveling east-
bound on State Highway 121, re-
portedly failed to stop at a flashing
red light and careened into Sle-
zak’s Escort, police said.
Wisor, an electronic techni-

to the accident.

an 11-year-old girl, which

she was sexually assaulted when

Police released few details ab-
