CLEARLAKE OAKS – A late Monday afternoon crash left two people injured.

Two people were said to be involved, both complaining of back pain, according to officials.


Fire and medical crews responded to the scene, and REACH air ambulance was summoned for medical transport.


Initial reports indicated major injuries but no further information about the extent of injuries or the names of those involved was available late Monday.
