TWO adults and three children were earlier today (Saturday) involved in a serious accident, which appears to have been a head-on-collision between a car and a truck.
The accident occurred late this morning on Bullion Boulevard and brought traffic to a standstill as emergency services used the jaws of life to extricate an entrapped passenger from the vehicle.
