Two people were injured in a weekend crash east of Teutopolis.

Effingham County Sheriff's Department reports a car driven by 42-year-old Sarah Hewing of Teutopolis slowed to turn off US Route 40 onto 2100th Street at 11:42am Saturday. A following car driven by 19-year-old Chanel Pals of Teutopolis didn't slow in time and rear-ended the Hewing vehicle.

Both drivers were injured in the crash, but neither was taken for treatment. Pals was cited for failure to reduce speed to avoid the crash and failure to wear her seat belt.
