A traffic light on U.S. 61 North, Devereux Drive near Pedro’s restaurant in Natchez has been taken out overnight by an accident sometime overnight, according to county officials.

The lane that allows travelers to cross Devereux Drive and enter the restaurant parking lot is blocked by caution cones while the traffic light is lying on the ground beside the roadway.

Adams County Emergency Management Director Robert Bradford said an overnight accident took down the traffic light.
