6 injured in multi-car accident on Highway 99

A multi-car collision on Highway 99 Saturday injured six people, authorities said.
A 20-year-old woman was apparently looking at her phone to select music while driving north on Highway 99 at about 12:15 p.m., and didn't see that the cars in front of her had slowed down. She rear-ended the vehicle in front of her before careening into the other lane and striking a second vehicle, which was propelled forward into one more vehicle. Six people in total were injured, but no further information was released.
