HANCOCK, MI-- Two people had to be extricated from their car, following a two-vehicle crash in Hancock Thursday.
The Houghton County Sheriff’s Office says it happened around 11:50 a.m. at Campus Drive and US-41. A Buick driven by 83-year-old Barbara Holmes of Kent, Washington failed to yield at the intersection at Campus Drive. She tried to make a left turn onto US-41 and hit a southbound car driven by 67-year-old Cecelia Erickson of Hancock.
Erickson’s vehicle veered out of control, rolled onto its roof, and came to rest on its side. She and her 77-year-old passenger had to be extricated from the vehicle using the Jaws of Life. They were not injured.
Holmes was taken to UPHS-Portage for treatment of minor injuries.
