Three-Car Crash on Easton

A 46-year-old Arline Avenue woman crashed into two cars in the 1100 block of Easton Road at about 3:45 p.m. Monday, police said.

According to police, the woman, who was driving a 2004 Chevrolet Malibu northbound on Easton Road near Mildred Avenue, said the power steering on her vehicle broke, causing her to lose control of the vehicle. She then entered the southbound lane and struck the driver’s side of a 2000 Buick, driven by a 20-year-old Philadelphia woman.

The Malibu then bounced off of the Buick, veered toward the northbound curb of Easton Road and then entered the southbound lane again and struck a 1988 Volvo 240 driven by a 31-year-old North Hills man, police said. 

The Malibu then came to a rest in front of Carney's Beef and Ale, causing damage to the bar’s landscaping.

The driver of the Malibu sustained “moderate injuries,” according to the report, and was transferred to Abington Memorial Hospital by the Second Alarmers; the driver of the Volvo sustained a minor leg injury.

No one was cited following the crash, no drugs or alcohol were involved; and each driver had insurance.
