ROYAL CITY — Two people suffered serious injuries in a collision near Royal City early Monday afternoon.

According to Kyle Foreman, public information officer for the Grant County Sheriff’s Office, a tire service truck was westbound on Road 12 SW when its driver failed to stop at the intersection with Dodson Road and collided with an unloaded potato truck. The two occupants of the tire service truck were taken to Samaritan Hospital with unspecified but serious injuries, Foreman said. The condition of the driver of the potato truck was unknown.

The road was cleared and traffic had resumed as normal by 1:30 p.m., according to a GCSO statement.
