MOSES LAKE - Two people were injured Tuesday evening in a multi-vehicle collision on Patton Boulevard near state Route 17 in Moses Lake.

Deeanna P. Sandoval, 23, and Angelica C. Cortes, 48, were transported by ambulance to Samaritan Hospital with unknown injuries after the vehicle Sandoval was driving was struck by another vehicle driving into oncoming traffic about 6:30 p.m. Tuesday. Cortes was a passenger in the vehicle. Moses Lake Police Captain Dave Ruffin said the injuries were likely minor.

According to police reports, 38-year-old Cesar S.
