(KAIR)--A 9-year-old child escaped serious injury, despite falling off his bike after entering a busy Atchison intersection on a red light.
According to a release from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, the young cyclist, at the intersection of 6th Street and U.S. Highway 59, entered, causing multiple vehicles to maneuver in order to avoid striking the bicycle.
Although he was not struck, the situation led to the child, around 4:00 Monday afternoon, falling off the bike, causing him to sustain minor injuries.
According to Wilson, the child was treated at the scene by Atchison County EMS, then taken home by a parent.
