NILES — At least four people were injured in a three-car accident Wednesday afternoon at South 11th Street (Michigan 51) and Chestnut Street, between Lowe's and Wal- Mart in Niles.

Olga Wehrly, of Three Oaks, was making a left turn on 11th and turned into the path of Tom Forsey, of Niles, who was traveling north on 11th, police said.

The impact forced Forsey’s vehicle to hit the driver’s side of a truck driven by Brett Adams, of Union, who was waiting to make a right turn onto 11th.

Three passengers and Wehrly were transported to Lakeland Hospital, Niles, by SMCAS (Southwestern Michigan Community Ambulance Service.)
