Mellette County Sheriff Mike Blom says two vehicles collided around 5:30 p.m. Sunday at the intersection of South Dakota Highways 44 and 63 on the western end of the Rosebud Indian Reservation.

Blom says a pickup truck with three occupants from Wisconsin was westbound on Highway 44 when it collided with a mid-size sedan with seven occupants heading north on Highway 63. He says the circumstances surrounding the crash are still unclear.
