BOISE -- A two-vehicle crash on 27th and Main streets Thursday night sent three people to the hospital.

It happened around 7:40 p.m.

Boise Police said that a Dodge Sirus sedan traveling west on Main Street collided with a Jeep Cherokee, which was northbound on N. 27th Street.

All three occupants in the Dodge, who are all in their 20s, were taken to the hospital with what appeared to be non-life threatening injuries. The driver is from Boise and both passengers are from Myanmar (Burma).

Witnesses first on scene told police that no one in the Dodge was wearing seat belts. Boise firefighters had to pry the door off the Dodge to get the occupants out.

The Jeep Cherokee rolled as a result of the collision. The driver, a man in his 20s, was the only occupant and did not have to be taken to the hospital.

The intersection is controlled by signal lights. Officers said one of the drivers appears to have run a red light. The investigation is continuing and no citations have been issued, pending that investigation.
