Two people were hurt after two Subarus collided head-on in the Merlin area late yesterday.

On Thursday at 4:16 p.m., Rural Metro Fire Department and American Medical Response were dispatched to the two-vehicle crash on Merlin Road near Carton Way.

Rural Metro and AMR crews found both vehicles off the roadway, with one of them rolled over. A number of passersby had stopped to provide assistance with keeping the vehicle on its side from rolling onto its top.

An off-duty firefighter from Medford Fire-Rescue was also on scene tending to the medical needs of the occupants. Two of the occupants were transported by AMR to Three Rivers Medical Center with what appeared to be non-life-threatening injuries.

The Josephine County Sheriff's Office was investigating the cause of the crash.
