One person was killed in a Christmas Day crash in Mahnomen County, the State Patrol said.
The crash happened at 11:12 a.m. when a 1999 Ford Crown Victoria northbound on Hwy. 59 at Milepost 310, in Bejou Township, spun out into the southbound traffic lanes, striking a southbound 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan.
The driver of the Dodge, Tisa Jones, 63, and her passenger, Curtis Lee Jones, 63, both of Underwood, Minn., were taken to area hospitals with noncritical injuries. Both were wearing seat belts and alcohol was not a factor, the patrol said.
The patrol did not offer details on the condition of the Ford's driver, a 78-year-old woman from Fosston, Minn. It expected to release more information about her on Thursday.
Mahnomen County sheriff's deputies and White Earth tribal police responded to the crash.
