Three people were injured in a head-on collision on West Main Cross Street in Liberty Township this morning.

The Hancock County Sheriff’s Office reports that 78-year-old Betty Burkholder was heading east on West Main Cross just after 9 am when she lost control.

Deputies say Betty went left of center and struck a vehicle driven by 79-year-old Melvin Micham of Sylvania.

Law enforcement on the scene said that both drivers were trapped in the wreckage and responding firefighters had to cut them out of their vehicles.

Hanco EMS took Betty, Melvin, and 81-year-old Carolyn Micham to Blanchard Valley Hospital.

A sheriff’s deputy said their injuries did not appear to be life-threatening.

Deputies cited Betty Burkholder with failure to control.
