Officials on the scene say that three cars were involved, and four people were taken to the hospital.
The accident happened at the heavily-traveled intersection just before 7 a.m. when, officials say, a Jeep heading south on Falls of Neuse crossed the center line and clipped a Toyota Forerunner. The Jeep then crashed head-on into a car.
The driver of the Jeep and the driver of the car were pinned into their vehicles, but rescue teams say both are stable with non-critical injuries. The injuries to the driver and passenger in the Forerunner were also said to be non-critical.
Traffic is moving again in the area, and no more back-ups are expected as drivers continue to head to work.
