No injuries were reported in a three-vehicle accident Tuesday afternoon in downtown Liberal.

The Liberal Police Department issued a press release saying around 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, officers were dispatched to the accident at the intersection of Kansas Avenue and Rock Island Road.

“Upon arrival, officers discovered a red 2013 Kia Rio, driven by a 56-year-old male, was traveling northbound on Kansas Avenue when his sandal got stuck on the accelerator, causing him to strike a white 2023 Jeep Wrangler, driven by a 24-year-old female,” the release said.

LPD said the impact caused the white Jeep to strike a black 2018 Nissan Altima, driven by a 21-year-old male. The driver of the red Kia was cited for no insurance, driving without a valid license and inattentive driving.
