Ironwood - Ironwood Public Safety Department officials report no one was seriously injured in a three-car accident that occurred at the intersection of Curry Street and Cloverland Drive Tuesday evening.

Shortly after 5:30 p.m., Tuesday, a car was attempting to turn north onto Curry Street from eastbound Cloverland Drive. IPSD officials said due to several westbound Cloverland Drive cars attempting to turn south onto Curry Street toward the Luther L. Wright School, the eastbound car was unable to see a westbound vehicle traveling in Cloverland Drive's outside lane.

The turning car struck the westbound vehicle, officials said, getting knocked into a third car as a result of the force.

Two cars were towed from the scene and officials said the only reported injuries were minor pains.

The driver of the turning vehicle was cited for failing to yield.

The names of the drivers involved in the accident are being withheld until the official accident report is completed.
