(KNSI) – The Minnesota State Patrol is investigating a two-vehicle head-on crash on westbound Interstate 94 Friday morning that left two people fighting for their lives.

It happened around 9:00 a.m. near LaBeaux Avenue/mile marker 200 in Albertville. According to the state police preliminary accident report, a 20-year-old Foley woman was driving her 2010 Chevy Equinox east on 94 when it crossed the median and into oncoming traffic. The scene of the accident is in a construction site and there is no middle barrier. Her SUV crashed into a westbound Ram Promaster van. Both the woman and the 39-year-old Blaine man behind the wheel of the van were seriously injured.

Video from the scene showed the road was closed while medical helicopters landed on the highway, but has since reopened.
