Injury crash blocks Highway 12

Three vehicles crashed Monday morning on Highway 12 west of Sebastopol, blocking the rural highway’s two lanes for more than an hour, the CHP said.

Two people were taken by ambulance to a hospital after the 8:50 a.m. collision just west of Furlong Road.

Initial reports included that the victims had moderate injuries but the CHP later revised their report, indicating there were major injuries involved.

The crash involved a work truck, a sedan and a Mini Cooper, according to the crash reports.

Tow trucks were responding to clear the wreckage and the roadway was cleared at about 10 a.m.
