18 year old Sirinity Pritchard of Junction City was taken to the hospital with suspected minor injuries. The Highway Patrol reports both passenger and driver were wearing their seat belts at the time of the accident.

An accident about an hour prior to that landed one Abilene man in the hospital.

This morning’s winter weather sent a Salina woman to the hospital after she lost control of her vehicle on I-70 in Geary County.

The Kansas Highway Patrol says that 46-year-old Lisa Good was eastbound on the interstate when a truck passed her 2023 Lexus ES, causing Good to have to move further to the right. That caused her to go into the ditch and into a flat spin just east of the exit to U.S. 77 in Junction City. She then struck a delineator post before coming to a rest.

Good was transported to Stormont Vail with minor injuries. No citations were issued in the accident.
