CENTRAL - Authorities say two people managed to walk away from a crash that left their truck snapped in half Sunday night.

The Central Fire Department says crews were called to the accident on Joor Road around 7 p.m. Sunday. Firefighters arrived on scene to find a pick-up truck badly mangled alongside the roadway.

The truck was said to be "lodged" in a culvert, and a trailer carrying an ATV also appeared to be wedged underneath the wreckage. 

The department says two people inside the vehicle were not trapped and managed to escape with non-life-threatening injuries.
