(KNSI) – The Kandiyohi County Sheriff’s office is investigating after ten people were hurt in a crash.
Investigators say just after 1:00 Sunday afternoon, they were called to a crash at the intersection of County Road 29 and County Road 1, and when they arrived, they found two minivans had collided, and both vehicles were on their sides. One of them was on exposed underground charged power lines.
Crash investigators say a Chrysler minivan being driven by 38-year-old Aaron Nelsen of Renner, South Dakota, was traveling north on County Road 1 when a Toyota minivan driven by 32-year-old Jairo Morales of Rockville apparently ran a stop sign at County Road 29. Morales and 35-year-old April Nelsen had to be pried out of their vehicles by the jaws of life. Morales and 31-year-old Ligda Ramos were airlifted to a hospital with non-life-threatening but serious injuries. Aaron and April Nelsen were taken to a nearby hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
The four children in the Chrysler and the two children in the Toyota were treated for non-life-threatening injuries. The kids ranged in age from two to 16.
The exact cause of the crash is still under investigation.
