The report states a four-door 2002 Saturn, driven by Travis J. Busch, 35 of Anoka, and a 2009 Mercury Milan, driven by Clarke, were both headed southbound on I-35 when the Saturn lost control and slid into the back of the Mercury.

Muse was a passenger in Clarke’s car.

Busch was not injured.

The crash took place at 4:20 p.m. The State Patrol classified it as a sideswipe collision.

All occupants were wearing their seat belts, and no alcohol was detected.

The report stated both vehicles sustained minor damage.
