Three car accident

A Geneva woman was treated for minor neck injuries after she was involved in a three-car accident in front of the Oakwood Mobile Home Park, 1237 U.S. 27, Portland, at 5:42 p.m. Wednesday.

Lonnie D. Mertz, 31, Portland, said he failed to notice that the car in front of him was coming to a stop on the highway, resulting in him hitting the vehicle and causing it to go into the other lane where it was hit by third vehicle.

Jasmin I. Buenrostro, 38, was the only person involved with the accident who sought medical treatment. The injuries appeared to be minor according to Jay County Sheriff’s Office.

Buenrostro was northbound when she drove into the vehicle of Juan Marentes, 43, Portland, whose vehicle was forced into the other lane by Mertz.

Total damage was estimated between $50,000 and $100,000. Mertz was driving his 2011 Chevy Silverado, Buenrostro a 2015 Chevy Trax and Marentes was in his 2008 Chrysler Town & Country.
