A Gypsum man was cited after a four-vehicle accident late Thursday afternoon in Salina.
Alden Hemphill, 33, of Gypsum was eastbound in the 1000 block E. Iron Avenue at 5:50 p.m. in a 2009 Subaru Legacy. According to Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester, Hemphill was not paying attention and was on his cellphone when he rear-ended a 2002 Pontiac Grand Am driven by Keegan Emery, 22, of Salina.
The impact forced the Grand Am into a 2013 Volkswagen Beetle driven by Mark Martin, 70, of Salina, forcing the Beetle into a 2006 Chrysler Pacifica driven by Shawnna Wylie, 51, of Salina.
No one was injured in the pileup, Forrester noted.
The Legacy had disabling front-end damage and was towed from the scene. The Grand Am had disabling front-end and rear-end damage and was towed from the scene. The Beetle had rear-end damage and was removed by the driver. No damage was reported to the Pacifica.
Hemphill was cited for following too closely and no proof of liability insurance, according to Forrester.
