One person was transported Monday to a local hospital after six vehicles had a chain-reaction crash in the westbound lanes of U.S. Route 460 near Princeton. The crash was reported about 1:38 p.m. to Mercer County 911. Initially no injuries were reported after the collisions on Crumpecker Hill, but rescue squads were dispatched after law enforcement and firefighters arrived on the scene. A vehicle leaking fuel was also reported. Traffic continued moving west on Route 460 after the six vehicles pulled off. Deputy D.A.
