One passenger was transported to the hospital after a three-vehicle crash on Interstate 5 Monday afternoon.

An Oregon State Police report said just after 12:20 p.m. the northbound driver of a pickup was stopped in traffic for construction about a mile south of the landfill, south of Roseburg. The van was rear ended by a second van and then rear ended the sedan in front of it.

One person in the first vehicle was taken to CHI Mercy Medical Center with minor injuries. The vehicle they were in had to be towed from the scene. The report does not indicate if any citations were issued.

Northbound freeway traffic was backed up to the Winston exit for a time while the crash was dealt with.
