Rockford firefighters and other first responders check out a car involved in a Friday afternoon accident that resulted in injuries to two unidentified adults. The car apparently traveled off the road shortly before 4:30 p.m. and the driver overcorrected causing it to roll into a nearby field where a farmer had finished baling. The heavily damaged vehicle came to rest on its wheels with one of the occupants trapped for a short time. Ambulances transported the injured to Joint Township District Memorial Hospital in St. Marys. The report was not complete at presstime Friday night.
