Driver ends up in ditch after missing
turn
Staff Report |
| |
|
|
| A Fort Riley man was injured some time overnight
when his dark purple Honda Accord slipped over the embankment near
the intersection of Limerick Road and Military Trail Road adjacent
to U.S. 24, officials said today. |
| The man, whose name was not being released at press
time, reportedly received minor head injuries and was taken to Irwin
Army Hospital on Fort Riley by Riley County EMS. The Blue
Township Fire Department and the Pottawatomie County
Sheriff's office assisted.
Emergency personnel were not sure, but speculated that the
man may have spent several hours in the ditch adjacent to the
highway, because the mud in the area was dry this morning where the
car skidded. He was conscious when he was taken at about noon from
the scene.
Blue Township Assistant Fire Chief John
Best said the man's injuries were not life-threatening. Emergency
personnel believe the car was traveling west on Military Trail Road
and that the driver had missed the turn right onto Limerick Road to
access the highway, but they could not confirm that. The car itself,
which carried Geary County license tags PUP 182, did not appear to
have major damage and was upright in the ditch, though barely
visible from nearby roads because of the tall grass.
The Pott County sheriff's department is investigating
the accident. |
