3 hospitalized following three-car crash in St. Charles 

ST. CHARLES, MO – Distracted driving was a major factor in what led to a multi-vehicle wreck on the Blachette Bridge reported after 8 p.m. last Tuesday, July 15.

Missouri State Highway Patrol said the crash happened after a 33-year-old man driving a 2012 Nissan Quest appeared to be distracted as he failed to notice that the cars in front of him were reducing their speed. It seemed he was unable to press on his brakes in time to avoid a crash and rear-ended a 2015 Nissan Altima.

The Nissan Altima was pushed forward, which then struck the back of a 2006 Buick Lucerne.

The Buick driver was identified as a 33-year-old woman from St. Louis, and the Nissan Altima driver, as a 26-year-old man.

Both male drivers, who are both Maryland Heights residents, were left in serious condition, while the female driver was left in moderate condition. St. Charles County Ambulance District transported all drivers, the sole occupants of their vehicles, to Mercy Hospital.

No citations or charges were announced at this time.
