According to a release from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, it happened around 3:40 at the intersection of South 10th Street and U.S. 59 Highway.

The release says Candace Shields was driving a Chevy pickup truck southbound on 10th Street when a northbound Chevy Suburban driven by Mary Wurtz, of Atchison, attempted to turn west onto U.S. 59 and the vehicles collided.

Three children in the Shields vehicle were examined by EMS at the scene, but were not transported.
