Two People Injured In Truck Collision

Two people were injured Friday after the pickup truck they were riding in hit a dump truck in the Spokane Valley.

William Nelson, 27, of Coeur d’Alene suffered fractured ribs and cuts to his head and knees. He was taken to Deaconess Medical Center, where he was listed in satisfactory condition late Friday.

A passenger in his truck, Stacey Biff, 28, of Colbert, was treated for cuts on her head and knees and released from Deaconess.

Neither wore a seat belt at the time of the crash, Washington State Patrol troopers said.

Nelson was driving south on Pines about 12:30 p.m. when he ran into a dump truck driven by Theodore Catlett, 46. Catlett was attempting to turn onto Pines from Grace Avenue.

He was uninjured, troopers said.
