One was injured in a three car crash Wednesday afternoon in Fort Gratiot Township.  St. Clair County Sheriff’s Deputies say a vehicle driven by a 67  year old Port Huron Woman allegedly ran a red light and struck two other vehicles on 24th Avenue. It happened shortly before 3:30pm Wednesday at the traffic light near the Huntington Bank parking lot. Authorities say the woman’s Chevrolet sedan was traveling south on M-25 when she did not stop for a red light and struck two Jeeps that were turning out of the parking lot. One of the victims, a 53 year old woman from Burtchville Township, was taken to an area hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries. Authorities say preliminary investigations concluded that the Burtchville woman was intoxicated at the time of the crash. The Port Huron woman was cited for failing to yield to a red light. Fort Gratiot Township Fire and Rescue crews and the Michigan State Police assisted at the scene of the crash.
