(KLZA)---The names of those involved in a three-vehicle wreck Monday evening in Richardson County just south of the junction of Highways 4 & 75 have been released. 

Two people were injured in the wreck that involved a 1999 Oldsmobile, a 2002 Chevy Trailblazer and a 2013 International semi-truck and trailer. 

Deputy Sheriff Jeff Frederick says the car driven by 50-year-old Karen LaFrance of Tecumseh was southbound on Highway 75,  and stopped to make a left turn into the Six Mile Café parking lot. The southbound Trailblazer, driven by 17-year-old Paxton McClarnen, of Dawson, rear-ended the car, shoving it partially into the northbound lane.

A northbound semi-truck and trailer operated by 36-year-old Kevin Niles,from Kansas, was able to avoid hitting the car head-on. The rear wheels of the trailer rolled up and over the hood of the car, causing LaFrance to be trapped inside the car.  Emergency responders had to extricate LaFrance from the car.

LaFrance was transported by the Humboldt Rescue Squad to the Nemaha County Hospital in Auburn. She was later transported by medical helicopter to a metropolitan hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.  

McLarnen was also transported to the hospital in Auburn with non-life threatening injuries as well.  The truck driver was not injured and with a little bit of work was able to continue on his way.

The cause of the wreck remains under investigation.

The Humboldt Fire Department and members of the Dawson Fire Department also responded to the scene of the wreck.  

Highway 75 was shut down for about an hour. The wreck was reported at about 5:20 Monday evening.
