(KAIR)--A Monday evening Atchison County crash left a man injured, and authorities believe alcohol played a role in the wreck.
Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, in a release, said 36-year-old Jeffery Jewell was southbound on K7 Highway, near 314th Road, around 8:00.
That’s when his Ford Explorer went across the northbound lane, ran off the embankment, and struck a tree.
Laurie said Jewell suffered minor injuries to his head, but refused transport for hospitalized treatment. However, deputies later took him to the hospital.
Laurie said it’s believe Jewell was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the wreck, which remains under investigation.
