Bloomington Man Injured In Accident

Last updated on Tuesday, November 14, 2017

(BEDFORD) - A Bloomington man was injured in a three-vehicle accident at State Road 37 and 16th Street on Monday morning.

According to a Bedford Police report, 60-year-old Anita Madding of Springville was in the eastbound turn lane on State Road 37 at 16th Street and was preparing to turn east onto 16th Street from State Road 37.

Police say 71-year-old Thomas Phillips of Springville failed to stop his 1996 Chevrolet pickup and struck the rear of a 2017 Toyota Rav 4 driven by 59-year-old Michael Krahn of Bloomington. The collision pushed the Rav 4 into the Madding's 2013 Chevrolet Cruz.

Phillips told police he looked up and saw the vehicle stopped in front of him and he could not get stopped in time, striking the other vehicle in the rear.

During the investigation in the Long John Silvers parking lot, Krahn requested an ambulance due to neck pain. An IU Health Hospital ambulance responded and took Krahn to IU Health Hospital for treatment.

Both Phillips and Manning refused medical treatment at the scene.
