(KNZA)--A three-vehicle Friday night Buchanan, County, Missouri crash sent four individuals to the hospital--including an Atchison, Kansas woman.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol says it happened on U.S. 59 Highway about one mile west of Faucett just after 9:30.
The Patrol said a mini-van driven by 34-year-old Jamie Arb, of Vienna, Missouri, was southbound when it struck the rear of a SUV driven by 21-year-old Luke Spencer, of Kansas, City, Missouri, who was stopped in traffic. The impact pushed the SUV into a mini-van driven by 57-year-old Thomas Smith, of Atchison, who was also stopped in traffic. After impact, the SUV traveled off the road and down an embankment.
A passenger in the Smith mini-van, 30-year-old Atchison resident Chelsey Mestagh, along with Arb, Spencer and a passenger Spencer's vehicle, from Prairie Village, were transported by ambulance to Mosaic Life Care, in St. Joseph.
The Patrol says all the occupants were properly restrained.
