PORTLAND, Ore. -- Two people were hurt Tuesday morning when a semi slammed into slowing traffic on Highway 224.

Oregon State Police said a 17-year old Milwaukie girl received serious, but non-life threatening injuries in the crash.

Just before 7 a.m. investigators said the semi driven by 64-year-old Jerome Heidt was approaching the Johnson Road intersection when it  crashed into the back of a black 2001 Honda Civic.

That impact pushed the Civic into a crash with three other vehicles.

Medics were able to pry the 17-year-old Civic driver out of the car and get her to the hospital. One other driver had minor injuries.

Heidt was cited for careless driving.
