A woman was critically hurt in a three-vehicle crash Thursday morning on Route 30 in Unity.
She and another motorist were taken by ambulance to AHN Forbes Hospital in Monroeville following the crash near the Theatre Street intersection, according to Mutual Aid Ambulance Service spokesman Shawn Penzera.
In a news release issued June 7, state police said a Chevrolet Monte Carlo being driven by Datina Chinda, 49, of Johnstown, was headed east on Route 30 approaching the Theater Street intersection. The car began driving erratically and crossed over a concrete median into the westbound lanes.
The car sideswiped a Ford F-150 pickup and collided head-on with a Chevrolet Trailblazer, both of which were traveling west. The Monte Carlo ended up facing the wrong way in the westbound lane.
Chinda was critically injured, troopers said. At least two others in the pickup and SUV were taken to hospitals for treatment.
All three vehicles were towed.
Unity firefighters responded to the collision, which occurred shortly before 7:30 a.m., a Westmoreland County Public Safety supervisor said.
A section of Route 30 was closed between Theatre Street and the Route 30 Shoppes Plaza until about 11 a.m., while the wreckage was cleared and state police from Greensburg investigated.
