NO INJURIES WERE reported in an accident at E. U.S. 6 and Division Street about 8:45 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 27.

Morris police reported Erin Summerson, 18, Newark, was stopped behind a semi-truck in the left turn lane of U.S. 6 at Division Street.

Summerson told police the driver of the semi-truck made a wide turn and blocked her view. She failed to see the Honda driven south on Division Street by Mary Ellen Reato, 54, 3560 Country Club Lane, and the vehicles collided.

Summerson said the light had turned red and her vehicle was still in the intersection.
