ND Highway Patrol: Head on crash leaves both drivers in hospital

(Fargo, ND) -- The North Dakota Highway Patrol (NDHP) and several other agencies responded to a two vehicle crash about seven miles south of Fargo.

Initial investigations say the first vehicle, driven by 54-year-old George Carroll, was heading north on I-29 when his vehicle drove across a patch of ice. The report released by NDHP says Carroll lost control of the vehicle, which crossed the median into the south lane and struck a second vehicle, driven by 31-year-old Damian Barglof, head on.

Carroll was stuck inside the vehicle after the crash, suffered minor injuries, and was taken to Essentia Health in Fargo. Carroll was wearing his seatbelt. He was also cited for a "care required" charge by NDHP. 

Barglof was not stuck but remained inside his vehicle after the crash, suffered serious but non-life threatening injuries, and was taken to Sanford Hospital in Fargo.
