The driver's side tire snapped off of Liggett's car.

The Sheriff's Office says one of the drivers was medivaced to the hospital by the State Police helicopter, and the other was taken by the Hancock Fire Department's ambulance.

Due to the severity of the injuries sustained in the collision, the Washington County Sheriff's Department Accident Reconstruction Team responded to the scene to conduct an investigation.
