(KNZA)--A Tuesday afternoon rear-end collision on I-29 in St. Joseph, Missouri sent a Troy woman to the hospital.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol says 70-year-old Sharon Ruhnke was following a southbound van too closely and her SUV struck the rear of the vehicle.

Ruhnke, who was wearing a seatbelt, was transported by ambulance to Mosaic Life Care in St. Joseph with what the Patrol described as minor injuries.

The driver of the van, 53-year-old Savannah, Missouri resident Jon Morgan, was not hurt.

The wreck was reported around 3:00 Tuesday afternoon.
