Four injured in three-car crash on Route 29

PERKIOMEN TWP. — Four people were injured Tuesday night after a three-car crash on Route 29 about 8:09 a.m., according to state police.

According to state police at the Skippack barracks, John Joseph Nolan, 20, of Perkiomen was driving a 2006 black Ford Mustang east on Main Street/Route 29 just before the intersection with Plank Road when he lost control and passed over into the westbound lane.

Nolan's Mustang struck the rear driver side of a 1998 white Chevrolet pickup driven by Kelly Norley Lesher, 35, of Perkiomenville, police said. This caused the Chevy to spin 180 degrees into the eastbound lanes of Route 29, police said.

The Mustang continued to travel in the westbound lane where it struck a 1996 white Ford pickup driven by Marc Vincent Monaco, 27, of Schwenksville head-on. All three vehicles were disabled by the crash, police said.

Nolan, Lesher, Monaco and a passenger in Nolan's vehicle, Daniel Mark Weis, 20, of Collegeville, were injured in the crash. Nolan and Weis were brought to Phoenixville Hospital and Weis was airlifted to Hahnemann Hospital in Philadelphia, police said. It was unknown the extent of their injuries.

According to a spokeswoman at Phoenixville Hospital, Nolan was treated and released Tuesday.
