A head-on collision on Redbone has sent 2 people to an area hospital.

Just before 11:30 p.m., two vehicles collided head-on near 400 Redbone Road. One person in a newer SUV was trapped and had to be extricated from the vehicle by trained Vicksburg firefighters. VFD employed the spreaders, more commonly called the Jaws of Life, to open a path to the entrapped driver.

It appears the newer SUV crossed over into the northbound lane making impact with the older SUV. Two people were transported to an area hospital with injuries.
