Two people were airlifted to UC Medical Center after a frightening accident on Interstate 75 on Monday.

The Boone Co. Sheriff's Office said a truck was northbound in the center lane near Walton just before 7 p.m. when the truck moved into the left lane, forcing a car in that lane into the median wall before ending up under the truck's trailer.

Firefighters put the trailer's wheels on blocks and were able to cut a door off the car to extricate both patients, Christopher York, 33, of Verona, and Anna Speier, 44, of Bromley.
