Iron Mountain crash injures three

IRON MOUNTAIN, MI--   Three people were taken to the hospital following a two-vehicle accident in Iron Mountain Wednesday.

City fire and police departments were dispatched around 4:15 p.m. to US-2 and Ridgeview at the Walmart traffic signal. Officials say a 38-year-old Escanaba woman was driving her SUV westbound when she turned left into the path of an eastbound SUV driven by a 54-year-old Vulcan woman.

Both drivers and a 16-year-old passenger in the westbound vehicle were taken to Dickinson County Hospital for treatment of what are believed to be non-life-threatening injuries.

The Escanaba driver was cited for failure to yield the right of way.
