A three-vehicle accident at a U.S. 27 intersection sent one person to the hospital Wednesday afternoon and snarled traffic as officials worked to clear the scene.

According to an accident report filed by the Somerset Police Department, the collision occurred at light 8, in front of Kentucky Fried Chicken and Culver’s, at around 12:20 p.m. Wednesday.

According to the report, the accident occurred when Janice E. Barron, 64, of Ron-Dale Drive, Somerset, was traveling southbound on U.S. 27 in a 2006 Ford Freestyle when her vehicle collided with a 2003 Honda CRV operated by Christina O’ Bryan, 55, of Rocky Hill Road, Bronston.

O’ Bryan was attem-pting to cross U.S. 27 from Tradepark Drive at the time of the impact, in which Barron’s vehicle collided with the left side of O’ Bryan’s vehicle with her front bumper.

A third vehicle was also involved in the collision.

According to the report, Sarah Dalton, 76, of White Way Inn Road, Monticello, operating a 2001 Dodge Caravan, was attempting to travel westbound from Sonny’s Way at the intersection when her vehicle collided with Barron’s Freestyle in the left side.

All three vehicles came to rest in the middle of the intersection, and traffic in the southbound lanes of U.S. 27 was limited to one lane while crews worked to clean up the accident scene.

O’ Bryan was trans-ported to Lake Cum-berland Regional Hospital after she reportedly complained of neck and hand pain. LCRH spokesperson Susan Wilson said O’ Bryan was treated in the emergency room but not admitted.

“The driver of unit 1 (Barron) stated that she believed she had the green light while traveling southbound on U.S. 27 in the far left lane,” stated the report. “She then stated that the other units (O’ Bryan and Dalton) pulled in front of her vehicle.”

According to the report, both O’ Bryan and Dalton were attempting to cross U.S. 27 when the collision occurred, and Dalton reportedly told officers “she was sure she had a green light.” O’ Bryan reportedly stated to officers that she had slowed down and was waiting for a car on the opposite side of the intersection to clear when the collision occurred.

“One witness stated that the southbound lanes of U.S. 27 had a red light at the time of the collision,” the report stated.

That witness had seen the entire collision, but was unsure as to which way the vehicles were traveling when the incident occurred.

Barron and Dalton and a passenger in Dalton’s vehicle, Elizabeth Duncan, were not injured in the accident.

Everyone was wearing a seat belt at the time of the collision.
