AMBER TWP. — One person was transported to the hospital following a three car crash at U.S. 10 and Meyers Road Monday night about 7:15 p.m.

The vehicle occurred when a Saturn Vue SUV, driven by a 54-year-old Baldwin man, traveling west on U.S. 10 failed to stop for the red light, according to Mason County Sheriff’s Deputy Jeremy King, at the scene. The Saturn struck a black Chrysler Town and Country mini van, driven by a 67-year-old Mears woman, that was traveling north on Meyers Road. That van was then struck by a south-bound Buick, driven by a 78-year-old Irons man.

The driver of the mini-van was transported by Life EMS ambulance to Spectrum Health Ludington Hospital for what appeared to be non-life-threatening injuries.

The driver of the Saturn was cited for disregarding a traffic signal.

Pere Marquette Township and Ludington fire departments also responded.
