Three people were injured when a pickup and car collided in northwest Salina Monday morning.
Verna Mettlen, 79, of Lincoln, was northbound on N. Broadway Boulevard in a 2007 Buick LaCrosse when she attempted to turn west onto State Street and turned in front of a southbound 2017 Dodge Ram 1500 pickup driven by Kathy McCandless, 62, of Salina, Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester said this morning. The wreck occurred at approximately 11:30 a.m. Monday.
Both drivers and an 81-year-old male passenger in the LaCrosse were injured and were transported by EMS to Salina Regional Health Center, Forrester said.
The LaCrosse sustained extensive passenger-side damage and the Ram sustained front-end damage, Forrester said. Both were towed from the scene.
Forrester said Mettlen was cited for failure to yield.
