Family injured in 18 highway accident

Three family members received minor to moderate injuries in a two car accident on 18 highway, about 5 miles west of Adrian yesterday. Around 12:30 p.m., a westbound GMC truck driven by Leon Smith, 56, of Peculiar made a left turn in the path of an eastbound 2003 Ford driven by Jessica L. Kendrick, 30, of Adrian.
