(KNZA)--An Effingham teenager escaped serious injury in a two-vehicle Atchison County wreck Thursday morning.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says the wreck happened around 7:30 on K-116 Highway about three miles north of Nortonville.
The Patrol reports 32-year-old Tyler Fuhrman, of Cummings, was driving a semi tractor-trailer westbound when he failed to yield and made a left turn in front of a mini-van driven by 18-year-old Philip Boyce. Boyce tried to avoid the semi but struck the vehicle.
He was transported by private vehicle to the Atchison Hospital with suspected minor injury.
Fuhrman was not hurt.
The Patrol reports Boyce was buckled up at the time of the wreck, but Fuhrman was not wearing a seatbelt.
