No serious injuries in 3-vehicle wreck on Highway 206

There were no serious injuries in a three-vehicle wreck on Highway 206 late Sunday morning, according to Montana Highway Patrol.

Patrol Sergeant Duane Bowers said nine people were involved, but only four reported minor injuries and none were taken to the hospital.

One driver, 35-year-old Lachrisa Sandlin, of Kalispell, was cited for careless driving, according to Bowers.

The accident occurred at about 11:24 a.m. when a 2003 Chevy Tahoe headed south on Highway 206 was stopped to make a left turn on to Tallent Lane. The 1997 Chevy Suburban driven by Sandlin rear-ended the Tahoe.

The Tahoe was then pushed across the center line into the path of a northbound 2010 Chevy Silverado pickup.

No alcohol or drugs were suspected in the crash and all three drivers were wearing seat belts, according to Bowers. All three vehicles were towed from the scene.
