On Wednesday at approximately 11:09 A.M., deputies from the Mecosta County Sheriff's Office were dispatched to a two-vehicle personal injury accident on 19 Mile Rd at 230th Ave. 

The investigation revealed that a 80-year-old male from Big Rapids was south bound on 230th Ave. and stopped at the intersection. He then pulled out onto 19 Mile Rd. in front of a 49-year-old female from Bitely who was traveling west bound. The female's vehicle subsequently "t-boned" the male's vehicle.

The 80-year-old's wife, who was a passenger with him, was transported by EMS to the Big Rapids Hospital for non life-threatening injuries. 

Deputies were assisted on scene by Mecosta EMS, Big Rapids Towing, Big Rapids City Fire/Rescue, and Meceola Central Dispatch.
