The collision occurred shortly after 5 p.m. on Highway 29 just south of Clayton Creek Road, south of Lower Lake, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Witnesses reported that a late model Buick collided with another vehicle. The Buick reportedly sustained massive front end damage.
Traffic was blocked and there was an estimated delay of nearly a half hour as South Lake County Fire, sheriff’s and CHP units worked to help the victims and clear the roadway, according to witnesses.
Four people suffered minor injuries, reports from the scene indicated.
The CHP reported there were some additional noninjury crashes in the area at around the same time, including one that involved a vehicle that was hit by another vehicle after hitting a deer.
