Todd Township Crash Injures Bemidji Couple<\/h2>\n

Todd Township (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>)<\/strong> \u2014 Two Bemidji residents were injured after a vehicle left Highway 71 in Hubbard County.<\/p>\n

The crash happened at 1:36 p.m. on September 14, 2026. It occurred near 190th Street in Todd Township.<\/p>\n

The Minnesota State Patrol said a 2016 Hyundai Genesis was traveling south on Highway 71. The road was wet at the time.<\/p>\n

The Hyundai approached 190th Street and tried to pass another vehicle. The car then began to hydroplane on the wet roadway.<\/p>\n

The Hyundai left the road and entered the right ditch. It struck a cable connected to a transformer.<\/p>\n

The vehicle continued along the cable and then hit the transformer. The impact sent the Hyundai into the air.<\/p>\n

After landing, the Hyundai struck two parked vehicles. Those vehicles were a 2014 Ford Edge and a 2014 Ford F-150.<\/p>\n

Both parked vehicles were unoccupied, according to the State Patrol. The Hyundai then rolled onto its roof before stopping.<\/p>\n

Driver And Passenger Injured<\/h2>\n

David Alan Perkins, 62, of Bemidji, was driving the Hyundai. He suffered injuries described as non-life-threatening.<\/p>\n

Perkins was taken to Saint Joseph’s Hospital in Park Rapids for treatment. He was wearing a seat belt.<\/p>\n

Judy Lynn Perkins, 62, also of Bemidji, was a passenger. She also suffered non-life-threatening injuries.<\/p>\n

The crash report did not list a health care facility for Judy Perkins. She was also wearing a seat belt.<\/p>\n

No Alcohol Suspected<\/h2>\n

The State Patrol said alcohol was not suspected for either occupant. Airbags deployed in the Hyundai.<\/p>\n

No injuries were reported in the two parked vehicles because they were empty. The Hubbard County Sheriff’s Office assisted at the scene.<\/p>\n

The incident involved three vehicles in total. The State Patrol listed the road condition as wet.<\/p>\n

The crash remained listed as an injury incident. Information in the report was marked complete Monday afternoon.<\/p>\n
