The Subaru driver and a passenger were not injured. The driver of the truck, a 53-year-old man from Fairchance, was transported to Forbes Regional Hospital with a leg injury.

The driver of the other sedan, a 60-year-old Penn Hills woman, was taken to UPMC East for evaluation.

The incident remains under investigation. Traffic was reduced to one lane around the scene.

Emergency crews began leaving the area 1:10 p.m. All three vehicles were towed away.
