Big rig vs. car sends two to hospital

Emergency personnel tend to a 78-year-old male driver and his 74-year-old passenger from Mariposa. The driver attempted to turn south onto Highway 25 from northbound U.S. 101 and pulled directly into the path of a big rig driven by Paul Misner of Minnesota. Misner swerved in an attempt to miss the small sedan, but the back right tires of the rig hit the car, just missing crushing the occupants. Both people in the car were taken to Saint Louise Regional Hospital. Misner was not injured.
