(KAIR)--A wrecked vehicle is discovered unoccupied in Atchison County, and it’s later learned that the driver suffered injuries requiring hospital treatment.
According to a news release issued by Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, deputies were called to the area of 318th and Osborne Road around 12:30 Saturday morning, following the report of a vehicle in the ditch.
Although they found no one at the scene, or in the nearby area, the driver later came forward.
According to Laurie, 20-year-old Everest resident Rex Brunning reported to the Sheriff’s Office that the wreck occurred when he swerved to miss wildlife in the roadway, causing him to lose control of the vehicle.
He reported that he was transported by friends for hospitalized treatment, and required stitches in his back and treatment for hitting his head.
Following the treatment, Brunning was released.
