A Reed City Couple is recovering after a car accident in Mecosta Co.

It happened on Northland Dr. north of 19 Mile Rd. in Green Twp.

Deputies say a south bound vehicle (driven by a 38 year old man from Reed City) was slowing down for a vehicle that was in front of it when a another south bound vehicle (driven by a 47 year old male from Big Rapids) struck it from behind. 

The Reed City man and his female passenger (also from Reed City) were taken to the hospital by ambulance for minor, non-life threatening injuries.
