(KAIR)--A slick roadway played a role in a late Monday afternoon crash at Atchison’s River Road that left an elderly Atchison man in need of hospital care.
According to a release from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, it happened in the 1000 block of North River Road, where a pickup truck, driven by 68-year-old Terry Wall had been southbound on River Road. Wall lost control of the truck, which slid on the icy road, struck an embankment, and rolled over on its side.
Atchison County Rescue responded to the scene, removing the windshield of the truck so that Wall could be removed from the vehicle.
Once freed, Wall was transported by Atchison County EMS to Amberwell Atchison for treatment.
The wreck happened shortly after 4:00 Monday afternoon.
According to Wilson, the wreck remains under investigation.
