Fortunately, no injuries were reported following a four-vehicle crash on Route 3 near the Monroe County YMCA late Friday morning.

Emergency personnel responded shortly after 11:20 a.m. to Route 3 northbound at EE Road.

The vehicles involved were a 2015 Honda Accord driven by Molly E. Demond, 35, of Columbia, a 2013 GMC Acadia driven by Lori L. Collmeyer, 40, of Waterloo, a 2015 Toyota RAV 4 driven by Jane M. Buettner, 54, of Waterloo, and a 2018 Nissan Frontier driven by Jessica L. Ball, 37, of Waterloo.

The Acadia was carrying four passengers, including young children.

Demond was cited for failure to yield-turning left.
