(KAIR)--A Tuesday night wreck, on U.S. Highway 59, near Cummings, sent the driver to the hospital.
According to Atchison County Undersheriff Toby Smith, 40-year-old Winchester resident Jennifer Miller was southbound on the highway when her Volkswagen Passat, for reasons unknown, left the center of the roadway and struck a guardrail. That sent the car across the roadway and down an embankment, where the car stopped after crashing into a group of trees.
Smith- report says that when rescue crews arrived, they found the car 50 feet down the embankment, on the north side of the highway.
Atchison County EMS and Atchison County Rescue assisted Miller from the wreckage, and she was transported to Atchison- Amberwell Hospital for the treatment of what Smith identifies as non-life threatening injuries.
The wreck happened around 9:15 Tuesday night.
