The report states a 60-year-old Lowry City man was driving a 1996 Toyota Camry east on Route T, west of Quail Run Rd., when he swerved into the westbound lane and hit a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 driven by a 57-year-old Warsaw man.
Troopers said the 60-year-old man was flown to University Hospital with serious injuries. The 57-year-old man suffered minor injuries and was taken to Golden Valley Memorial Hospital by ambulance.
