(KAIR)--An elderly Platte City, Missouri woman is dead, and two others injured, following a four vehicle crash, which included two semis, Thursday afternoon on I-29 in Platte County. 

The Missouri State Highway Patrol identifies the victim as 79-year-old Delma George. 

The Patrol says she was going the wrong way on the interstate, traveling northbound in the southbound lane of traffic, when she struck the rear of another vehicle, which then caused a chain reaction crash. 

Two other drivers, including the one in the car hit by George and one behind the wheel of a semi, also suffered injuries requiring hospital treatment. 

The wreck happened shortly before 12:30 Thursday afternoon.
