A local woman was cited after a three vehicle wreck Friday afternoon in southeast Salina.

Alice Harris, 78, of Salina, was southbound on S. Ohio Street in a 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan when she attempted to turn left onto Albert Avenue and turned in front of a northbound 2017 Ford Edge driven by Cheryl Campbell, 61, of Salina, according to Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester. The collision occurred at approximately 2:40 p.m. Friday.

The impact of the collision spun the Grand Caravan around and into a westbound 2013 Dodge Ram 1500 pickup that was stopped in traffic. The pickup was driven by Slade Spratien, 40, of Salina.

Harris suffered minor injuries but refused treatment, Forrester noted. Campbell had minor injuries from the airbag deployment and was taken to Salina Regional Health Center by family.

The Grand Caravan had damage to both sides and was towed from the scene. The Edge had front-end damage and also was towed from the scene, Forrester reported. The Ram had front-end damage, but was removed by the driver.

Harris was cited for failure to yield a left-hand turn, according to Forrester.
