CITY, ND (NewsDakota.com) – Two Bismarck residents were injured after nearly rear-ending a vehicle on I-94 and then rolling Friday afternoon.

Sgt. Ben Kennelly with the North Dakota Highway Patrol reports that Fatumata Sheriff, 27, and Oumaru Sheriff, 23, were injured after an accident on the west edge of Valley City.

According to the report, the 2005 Honda Accord was traveling eastbound when it approached a slower moving vehicle. Before rear-ending the other motorist, Fatumata swerved to avoid collision, losing control and rolling, partially blocking the westbound passing lane.

Both Fatumata and Oumaru were wearing seatbelts and were transported to Mercy Hospital for treatment of their injuries. The crash remains under investigation.
