Officer Tim Coffman was the investigating officer. He said that police were called just after 11 p.m. for an “unknown accident” at the Knickerbocker/Jackson intersection. While on the way to the crash scene, the incident was upgraded by dispatch to a major motor vehicle accident with injuries.

Upon arrival, the driver of one of the vehicles was complaining of leg pains. She refused transport to the hospital in the ambulance after receiving treatment at the scene, though. Nobody was transported to the hospital.

According to the findings of the police investigation, a 2008 GMC Sierra pickup on Knickerbocker ran a red light and rammed into the other pickup, a 2006 GMC Sierra pickup that was northbound on Jackson. The young woman driving the 2008 GMC Sierra was the one with the leg pains. She was cited for running the red light. The occupants of the other Sierra were uninjured.
