Bismarck, North Dakota – Following a head-on collision early on Sunday morning in Ramsey County, two people are critically hurt.
A Toyota Varris entered the southbound lane of Highway 57 as it was heading north, 6 miles south of Devils Lake, according to a press release from the North Dakota Highway Patrol.
The Toyota then collided head-on with a Jeep Liberty before stopping on the east shoulder of the road. After that, the Jeep settled on the west shoulder. After that, everyone in both vehicles was taken for medical attention to CHI St. Alexius in Devils Lake (and eventually to Altru Hospital in Grand Forks).
