Emergency personnel responded to a three-vehicle collision, with a van flipped on its top, at 9:25 a.m. today.
Kosciusko County Sheriff’s Department deputies said a late model Chevy Silverado, driven by Jeffery Nicolet, 55, Plymouth, struck a 2004 Volkswagen Jetta, driven by Cathy Folk, 54, Warsaw, that then struck the van registered to Dan Lippincott, Warsaw.
Deputies said all three vehicles were eastbound when the van driver decided to turn and started to slow, and in turn Folk and Nicolet slowed their vehicles. Nicolet then struck the Jetta and then the van, flipping it over.
A person in the van was transported to Kosciusko Community Hospital with minor injuries. Damage was estimated at $40,000 to $50,000.
Warsaw Police Department, Warsaw Fire Department and Multi-Township EMS assisted. One of the two eastbound lanes of U.S. 30 was closed to traffic for at least 45 minutes.
