(KAIR)--An Atchison woman required hospital treatment following a late Thursday morning, two vehicle crash, just south of the Atchison city limits.

According to a news release issued by Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, it happened around 11:30, on U.S. Highway 73, at Raven Hill Road, when two southbound vehicles collided.

57-year-old Dorothy Williams was driving behind a pickup, driven by 17-year-old Samantha Ballard, of Atchison, with both vehicles traveling in the outside lane.

Williams changed lanes at the same time Ballard did, causing Ballard's truck to strike Williams' car.

Williams was transported by Atchison County EMS to the Atchison Hospital for the treatment of non-life threatening injuries.

Ballard, and her 17-year-old passenger, were not hurt.

All three involved in the wreck were buckled up when it happened.
