A two-vehicle crash near the intersection of Cloud Street and Broadway Boulevard this morning resulted in minor injuries for one driver and required both vehicles to be towed from the scene.

The crash happened shortly before 8 a.m. and involved a 2015 Jeep Cherokee driven by Margaret Alcorn, 49, of Ramona, Kansas, and a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado driven by a 26-year-old Salina woman.

According to Salina Police Department (SPD) Sgt. Matt Gawith, the Jeep Cherokee, was traveling westbound on Cloud Street in the left-turn lane, intending to turn south onto Broadway. As Alcorn attempted to make her turn, she reportedly failed to yield to the eastbound Silverado, which continued straight on Cloud Street.

The driver of the Silverado, who was not wearing a seatbelt, sustained minor injuries, including a possible concussion. She was transported to Salina Regional Health Center for treatment. Alcorn was uninjured in the collision but was cited for failure to yield.

Both vehicles sustained significant damage and were towed from the scene.
