Thief River Falls<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 A three-vehicle crash near the Pennington Avenue and Greenwood Street roundabout in Thief River Falls led to a citation, but no injuries were reported.<\/p>\n

Police received the accident report at 3:14 p.m. on March 10. The crash happened as traffic slowed near the roundabout, according to the report.<\/p>\n

Crash Happened Near Busy Roundabout<\/h2>\n

Authorities said Brooklynn Wilson of Newfolden was driving a 2004 Chevy Impala northbound on Pennington Avenue. Investigators said Wilson\u2019s vehicle struck the rear of a 2013 Honda Accord.<\/p>\n

The Honda was driven by Diane Rud of Thief River Falls. The force of the crash pushed Rud\u2019s vehicle forward. It then hit a Ford pickup driven by Thomas Volz of Omaha, Nebraska.<\/p>\n

According to the report, Volz had slowed for traffic before the chain-reaction crash happened. Police said there were no known injuries at the scene.<\/p>\n

The crash created a brief disruption near the roundabout. That area handles steady local traffic each day. Drivers often slow there as vehicles enter and exit the intersection.<\/p>\n

Citation Issued After Investigation<\/h2>\n

After reviewing the incident, police cited Brooklynn Wilson for vehicle brakes not in working order. No other citations were listed in the report.<\/p>\n

The case appears to be a property-damage crash. The report did not list any hospital transports. It also did not describe major damage beyond the three vehicles involved.<\/p>\n

Drivers are reminded to keep brakes and other safety parts in good condition. The Minnesota Department of Public Safety<\/a> offers safety information for drivers across the state.<\/p>\n

This crash remained under routine review following the report. No further injuries were known as of the latest information released.<\/p>\n
