LUCAS – Two residents of McPherson were injured in an accident just before 12:30p.m. on Sunday in Russell County.
The Kansas Highway Patrol reported a 2008 Dodge Ram truck driven by David A. Schoen, 20, Sylvan Grove, was eastbound on Kansas 18 in Lucas.
To avoid a rear end collision with another vehicle, the Dodge swerved left into the westbound lane and was struck in the passenger side by 2013 Toyota Prius driven by Kerry R. Lindh, 64, McPherson.
Lindh and a passenger Mary K. Lindh, 57, McPherson, were transported to the Ellsworth Medical Center.
Schoen was not injured. All were properly restrained at the time of the accident, according to the KHP.
