Country star Darryl Worley's daughter, 16, rushed to hospital after horror car crash in Nashville
Country star Darryl Worley's teenage daughter has been rushed to hospital after a horrific car crash in Nashville.
Writing on Facebook, the Tennessee native told fans his 16-year-old daughter, Savannah, had been 'life flighted' to the medical center after getting caught in a 'bad wreck' on Sunday.
'I’m flying back to Nashville from a show in New Mexico!' Worley, 60, wrote alongside photograph of him with his daughter, and images of two badly damaged cars.
Referring to his wife, he added: 'Kimberly called and said Savannah had been in a bad wreck and was being life flighted to Vanderbilt Medical Center in Nashville!
'She has a broken leg, bruises, and lacerations! Please pray for her and pray I can get home to be with my baby girl and Kimberly!
'Also pray for the lady in the other car! I don’t have any details on the accident but just ask you to pray!! Thank you!'
The two cars involved in the crash were so badly damaged, both hoods and bumpers were completely crumpled, while parts of the wheels had flown off.
Worley posted an update around midday on Tuesday, sharing a photograph of Savannah in a hospital bed hooked up to several machines.

'It’s been a rough few days but we know God is in control and shielded Savannah in all of this!!
'Not sure when she will get to go home but today looks a lot better than yesterday or the day before!'
Worley had been returning from a New Mexico show when he was told about his daughter's crash.
The other driver involved in the crash, an unnamed woman who drove the red car pictured, is in a serious but stable condition, her daughter Allison Hammock, 24, told DailyMail.com.
‘She’s stable and alert. She has required some surgeries. She was airlifted as well,' Allison said. ‘She’s in an absolute nightmare now with how this has all blown up.'
Allison said her mom had been on her way to work when the crash happened.
‘It was just an accident,' she said. 'I have been in contact with Savannah’s family. We are related down the line. I’m in touch with her mother.'
