An infant secured in a child seat was unhurt when a pickup truck and a car collided head on near the Kagman intersection on Sunday night, police said yesterday.<\/p>\n
Maj. Edward H. Manalili, chief of the Department of Public Safety\u2019s Criminal Investigation Bureau, said the infant was in a child seat at the rear of the car.<\/p>\n
Manalili said two persons were injured in the accident that happened along the back road south of the Kagman intersection at 6:50pm. Two other children were also slightly hurt.<\/p>\n
Investigation showed that a northbound red Toyota Tacoma suddenly encroached on the southbound lane, colliding head on with a white Hyundai Elantra that was traveling south.<\/p>\n
The driver of the Hyundai, an Asian woman, sustained a fractured right wrist and lower leg and lacerations to the leg and face. The unhurt infant was her passenger.<\/p>\n
The driver of the truck was not injured but his passenger, an eight-year-old boy who was sitting in the truck\u2019s bed, sustained a fractured leg. The two other children sitting on the truck\u2019s bed complained of pain in the shoulder, neck and head.<\/p>\n
Both vehicles sustained extensive damage, according to Manalili, who is also the acting DPS spokesman.<\/p>\n
The victims were brought to the Commonwealth Health Center for treatment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
