Two 19-year-olds were taken to a hospital and three other people were injured in a three-vehicle crash on Kansas Highway 10 early Sunday.
The crash occurred at 1:53 a.m. Sunday near mile marker 20 on Kansas Highway 10. The location was just east of the interchange at North 1400 Road on the eastern edge of Eudora, according to Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical’s PulsePoint app.
A 20-year-old Shawnee man driving a Chrysler 300 rear-ended a Lexus IS driven by a 37-year-old man who had a 19-year-old passenger in his vehicle, according to information provided by George Diepenbrock, a spokesperson for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office.
A 20-year-old woman driving a Honda Accord then struck the Chrysler 300 as it was in the roadway, Diepenbrock said. All vehicles were westbound, he said.
There were four passengers in the Honda Accord, Diepenbrock said. Two of them — a man and a woman, both 19 — were taken to Overland Park Regional Medical Center for treatment, he said.
None of the injuries were life-threatening, Diepenbrock said.
“It did require the westbound lanes and traffic to be diverted for a couple of hours for the crash investigation and vehicles to be towed,” Diepenbrock said. “Thank you to the area agencies, including Johnson County Sheriff’s Office and Eudora Police Department for assistance.”
Further details were not yet available around noon Sunday.
