Three people were hurt in a three-car accident Monday night near Cave Rock.

An SUV heading east rolled over after a vehicle going in the other direction sideswiped it. That vehicle had crossed the double-yellow line. After it hit the SUV, it then practically hit a mini van head-on, according to authorities.

The 8:45pm accident on July 30 temporarily closed Highway 50. All lanes are expected to be open by 11:30pm. The accident was about one mile east of Cave Rock.

Nevada Highway Patrol Trooper Dan Gordon told Lake Tahoe News no one sustained life-threatening injuries. Names of the people involved in the accident have not been released.

The driver of the mini van and a juvenile passenger were hurt, as well as a passenger in the SUV. The woman in the SUV was pinned in the vehicle and had to be extricated.

All three were taken to Renown Medical Center in Reno – one by CareFlight, one by Calstar and the other by ground ambulance.

Gordon also said alcohol is not believed to be involved.
