(KAIR) -- Two Atchison County teens were injured a single-vehicle accident Wednesday afternoon about 4 miles southwest of Lancaster.
According to the Kansas Highway Patrol, the accident occurred shortly after 1:30 on Greeley Road, just north of 274th Road.

Dieckmann and a passenger, 15-year-old Gage Walker of Lancaster, were taken to Atchison Hospital with unknown injuries.
A second passenger, 15-year-old Willy Dieckmann of Effingham, was not hurt.
The patrol says all occupants were wearing their seatbelts.
