A three-car accident shut down State Street in Binghamton Tuesday afternoon and sent two people to the hospital.


The accident happened around 4:00 o'clock.


One eye witness says that the accident involved a truck crashing into the back of a car at a red light.


He was at the park at the corner of State and Court Street when he said that he heard "three large metallic crashes" and then he ran to see what was going on.


Binghamton resident Robert Boston said, "There was a truck that must have been going pretty fast because he ran into the actual car and he flew back about five feet, his vehicle did. So it was pretty bad."


No word yet on the extent of the injuries.
