(KAIR)--A Valley Falls woman escaped injury in a four vehicle Shawnee County crash Wednesday evening.

The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened around 6:20 on K-4 when a southbound vehicle crossed the center line of the highway, smashing into a northbound vehicle head on.

That caused a chain reaction crash, with another vehicle running into the rear of the one that was hit, and another smashing into the rear of the third vehicle.

The Dodge Durango that was hit head-on was driven by 56-year-old Valley Falls resident Judy Cunningham. The Patrol says she was buckled up and was not hurt.

The driver of the car that hit her head-on, 41-year-old Craig Kelly, of Clearwater, Kansas, was not wearing a seatbelt, with his injuries requiring treatment at Stormont Vail in Topeka.

The drivers of the other two vehicles also escaped injury in the wreck.
