Only Minor Injuries Reported In Separate Crashes In Trinity County

Trinity County was busy with traffic collisions Thursday afternoon. Just before 2:30PM two vehicles collided on Highway 299 near Del Loma and one of them flipped over onto its roof. It was blocking the westbound lane, and one way traffic control was in place until almost 4:30PM. Airbags deployed and the driver suffered minor injuries. At 3:20PM an elderly woman slid off Highway 3 about halfway between Douglas City and Hayfork and went about 80 to 100 feet down a very steep cliff. She suffered only minor injuries but she and her dog needed help getting back up to the roadway.
