(KAIR)--An Atchison man required hospital treatment following an early Friday afternoon wreck involving an SUV and a semi tractor-trailer.
According to a report from Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, it happened shortly before 12:30 in the 10,000 block of U.S. Highway 59. That’s where 73-year-old Robert Stuebs had stopped his Ford Expedition, on the south side of the highway facing west, at his mailbox. Stuebs attempted to make a u-turn, crossing both lanes of travel. As he did, his vehicle was struck in the rear passenger door by a westbound Peterbilt, driven by 56-year-old Gerald Masters, of Troy, who could not avoid striking Stuebs’ SUV.
Stuebs suffered injuries, and was transported by Atchison County EMS to Mosaic Life Care, in Saint Joseph, Missouri, for treatment.
Masters was not hurt.
