A Eyota man was injured in a three-car crash near Marion Township Wednesday.
Around 5:21 p.m., Matthew Ward, 36, of Rochester, was heading westbound on U.S. Highway 14. He slowed down to turn south on 60th Avenue Southeast and was rear-ended by Joshua Hewitt, 39, of Rochester, according to the Minnesota State Patrol report.
