(KAIR)--A three vehicle crash on an Atchison street left three injured late Tuesday morning.

A release from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson says it happened in the 100 block of South 10th Street, with all three of the involved vehicles, driven by Atchison residents, northbound on 10th Street at the time of the wreck.

The wreck, according to Wilson, took place when a minivan, driven by 41-year-old Shawnna Dreher, struck the rear of an SUV in front of her, driven by 67-year-old Debra Gerber, with the impact causing a chain reaction that then sent the SUV crashing into the rear of a pickup truck, driven by 39-year-old Charles Sprouse III.

Gerber, her 43-year-old passenger, and Dreher, who was traveling alone, were all transported to Amberwell Atchison by Atchison County EMS for the treatment of their injuries. According to Wilson, Sprouse was not hurt.

Dreher was cited for following too closely.

The wreck happened around 10:45 Tuesday morning.
