A minivan and tractor pulling a wheel rake collided shortly after 10 a.m. Friday on Route 3 near GG Road north of Waterloo.

The Waterloo and Columbia fire departments responded to the crash along with Monroe County EMS and the Monroe County Sheriff’s Department.

Police said a 2011 Chrysler Town & Country driven by Kristie L. Moore, 40, struck the rear of a 2015 John Deere tractor driven by a 16-year-old male. The tractor driver said he was as far over on the shoulder as possible, had hazard lights on and a slow vehicle sign displayed at the time of the crash.

Two 4-year-old passengers in the minivan were transported to Mercy Hospital South by Monroe County EMS for treatment of unspecified injuries.
