A three-vehicle crash is slowing traffic at Winnipeg and Eckhardt Tuesday afternoon.

It appears one vehicle took too wide of a turn into the turning lane and the third car was right behind when the fender benders occurred at around 12:45 p.m.

Police and fire are both on scene. It doesn’t appear there are any injuries but there is quite a bit of damage to the front end of the third vehicle. The damaged vehicle was leaking fluid.

Eckhardt going west at Winnipeg Street is blocked at the moment but traffic is getting through the other lanes.
