Presiding Justice HUTCHINSON delivered the opinion of the court:

Plaintiffs, Johnnie and Greg Peetoom, appeal from the trial court's order dismissing their complaint against defendants D. Michael Gibson, John Powers, and Hugh Funderburg. The trial court found that plaintiffs' complaint was barred by the two-year statute of limitations period for personal injury actions (735 ILCS 5/13-202 (West 1992)). We reverse and remand the case for further proceedings.
