One person was injured in a three-vehicle crash in central Salina Wednesday afternoon.

Shayna Deverman, 28, of Glen Elder, was in a westbound lane of E. Crawford Street in a 2020 Ford Explorer, waiting to turn south onto S. Fourth Street at approximately 2:50 p.m. Wednesday, Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester said this morning. Makayla Pierce, 23, of Salina, was stopped behind her in a Chevrolet Classic when a 2004 Chevrolet Malibu driven by a 15-year-old Salina boy struck the back of the Classic, forcing it into the Explorer.

Forrester said Pierce complained of neck pain and was transported by EMS to Salina Regional Health Center.

The Malibu received front-end damage, the Classic both front- and rear-end damage, and the Explorer rear-end damage, Forrester said. None of the vehicles was towed.

The boy was cited for following too closely, Forrester said.
