Sisters women hurt in Bend accident

Two Sisters women were injured Sunday afternoon, August 12, in a motor vehicle accident on Century Drive near the entrance to Entrada Lodge outside Bend.

According to sheriffÌs office reports, Joan Smith, 63, and her passenger Linda Sundvall, 57, were traveling eastbound on Century Drive when a westbound vehicle driven by Franklin Hurlburt, 80, of Berkeley, California, turned into their path.

SmithÌs 1986 Pontiac passenger car struck HurlburtÌs 1995 Chevrolet pickup truck and spun, striking a roadside tree with the passenger side. Hurlburt was attempting to turn into the parking lot at Entrada Lodge, according to sheriffÌs office reports.

Bend Fire Department responded to the scene and transported all three involved to St. Charles Medical Center.

SmithÌs injuries were of "low severity," as were HurlburtÌs, according to sheriffÌs office reports.

Sundvall was listed in "fair" condition on Monday, August 13.
