It happened on the corner of East Upsal Street and Chew Avenue early on Monday, March 13, the department told Daily Voice. At around 12:45 a.m., a Hyundai Tuscon struck a Chevrolet Cobalt, which then struck a parked Buick. The parked Buick then collided with a parked Cadillac, they continued. 

First responders had to remove the driver of the Chevrolet, a 22-year-old woman, from the car, police said. Both she and her 10-month-old passenger were treated for "minor" wounds, while both the driver and the passenger of the Hyundai were unharmed, authorities wrote. 

Both the Hyundai and the Chevrolet were towed from the scene, and the 22-year-old Chevy driver was cited for failing to use the vehicle restraint system for the child, police added.
