No one was seriously injured in a two-vehicle accident in Menlo on Sunday afternoon.  The Georgia State Patrol Post in Rome told WZQZ News that a Toyota Camry was traveling south on Bell Street and attempted to cross Georgia 48 on to Jamestown Road.  The Camry pulled into the path of a white Dodge Magnum that was traveling east on Georgia 48.  The Camry struck the Dodge causing it to rotate counterclockwise and exiting Georgia 48 on the north side of the road.  As the Magnum left the roadway it rolled onto its passenger side coming to a final rest.  One motorist suffered a very minor injury.  No one was transported to the hospital.  WZQZ News will have more details when they are released by the Georgia State Patrol.
