One person was injured in a wreck at Charlottetown Avenue and Third Street Monday night — just as investigators were leaving the scene of a fatal wreck down the street involving a CATS bus.

The Charlottetown Avenue wreck was reported at 8:09 p.m. Investigators have not said what caused the collision or given details about the victim’s injuries.

Earlier Monday, one person was killed and 16 others were injured in a rush hour wreck on Third Street that blocked traffic for hours. Investigators reopened the road around 8:14 p.m.
