Crash Alert: Impairment suspected in 2-vehicle crash near Sunset Acres

LINCOLN, NE – Authorities believe impairment may have played a role in a two-vehicle collision near N 27th St and Knox St that injured four people on Saturday, according to KOLN.

A 20-year-old man was driving a Chevrolet Silverado north on N 27th St when he allegedly ran a red light and struck the driver of a southbound Dodge Charger driven by a 22-year-old man who was turning east onto Knox St.

The impact sent the Silverado crashing into a traffic pole, and the Charger came to rest on the median on N 27th St.

First responders transported both drivers and two passengers from the pickup truck to the hospital.

Police believe both driers may have been impaired.

No citations have been issued.
