A three-vehicle accident on State Route 764 near Bellmeade Drive in Antis Township on Jan. 30 at 5:20 p.m. left several people with minor injuries.
State police said three vehicles were traveling north on the road when one of the vehicles began to slow for traffic that was stopped for a red light at the intersection.
Seventy-five-year-old Mark Baker of Tyrone began to slow down after seeing the vehicle operated by 33-year-old Jody Weimer of RR 7, Altoona slow down for traffic.
Thirty-one-year-old Christina Fink noticed Baker slowing down and also started to slow her vehicle but took her eyes off the road. Fink then looked back up and the car driven by Baker was going slower than she thought. Fink applied her brakes but was unable to avoid hitting Baker’s vehicle. Fink’s vehicle pushed Baker’s vehicle into Weimer’s vehicle.
All three vehicles came to rest near the point of impact.
Fink, Baker and Weimer were all wearing a seat belt and had minor injuries. A passenger in Weimer’s car, 33-year-old Amy Weimer, was also wearing a seat belt and had minor injuries. Police said two other passengers, a 13-year-old boy and an 11-year-old girl, suffered minor injuries and were transported to Altoona Regional Medical Center. Both were wearing seat belts.
