A three-car crash on Interstate 15 near Sahara Avenue caused heavy traffic for about two hours Saturday afternoon.

The crash involved a silver Dodge, black Toyota and white Hyundai. Two passengers were transported to local hospitals — one to University Medical Center and the other to Valley Hospital Medical Center — with unknown injuries, according to Nevada Highway Patrol trooper Jason Buratczuk.

The center and left lanes were blocked from about noon until just before 2 p.m., Buratczuk said.
