The Iowa State Patrol reports two people were injured during an accident Tuesday afternoon in Pottawattamie County. Authorities say 23-year old Dalton Jones and 38-year old Jordan Sollazo, both of Council Bluffs, were transported by Crescent Rescue to Mercy Hospital in Council Bluffs. Both were wearing their seat belts.

The accident happened at around 4:30-p.m. on Old Lincoln Highway, north of Council Bluffs.  Officials say a 2012 Honda Pilot driven by Sollazo was nearly stopped heading northbound and intending to turn west into a private drive, when the Honda was struck from behind by a northbound 1997 Saturn, driven by 23-year old Tammi Pickett, of Council Bluffs.

The State Patrol was assisted at the scene by deputies with the Pott. County Sheriff’s Office and Crescent Rescue.
