A two-vehicle crash Sunday afternoon on 9000N Road west of Manteno critically injured three people.

A semi carrying supplies for a pipeline project collided with an SUV at 5000W Road around 2 pm.

All three people were in critical condition and had to be extricated from their vehicles, including a man and a woman in the SUV.

Manteno Fire Chief Scott O'Brien said the semi was flipped upside down. O'Brien reported a ComEd crew arrived within 15 minutes to cut the power to a pole that was snapped and hanging over the truck.

Emergency personnel from WIlmington, Bourbonnais and Peotone assisted Manteno.

According to O'Brien, it was the second two-vehicle accident at the intersection in 24 hours.

The cause of the crash is under investigation.
