Minor injuries were reported after a wreck at the intersection at U.S. Highway 101 and state Highway 113 at about 6 a.m. Friday, said Trooper Brandon Johanson of the State Patrol. The trooper said that a car stopped at the Highway 113 stop sign, waiting to turn left onto northbound Highway 101. The driver did not see the SUV behind a boat being towed on Highway 101 and hit the SUV on its passenger side, causing it to roll/rotate before coming to rest on its driver side in the middle of the road, facing northbound, he said. A citation was issued for failure to yield the right-of-way, he said.
