According to Homewood police, around 6:30 p.m. a vehicle traveling westbound on 175th Street proceeded to turn left onto southbound Dixie Highway when it crashed into a vehicle headed eastbound on 175th Street.

Then, it hit a vehicle parked in the lot at Balagio Ristorante, 17501 Dixie Highway. That collision caused a chain reaction, in which the first parked car pushed into a second, and the second pushed into a third.

One person was transported to the hospital with a non-life threatening injury.

The driver of the vehicle turning left onto southbound Dixie Highway received a citation for failure to yield, according to police.
