ST. JOSEPH, MO – Five people were taken to the hospital as a result of a three vehicle crash on Interstate 29, south of St. Joseph around 12:30 Friday afternoon.

All vehicles came to rest on their wheels. Two occupants in the middle vehicle, ages 70 and 72, were taken to Mosaic with serious injuries. The three other individuals sustained moderate injuries.
