04/23/2025

(KAIR)--A Horton truck driver required hospital treatment Monday afternoon after the semi-tractor trailer he was driving ran off an Atchison County roadway and rolled over.

Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, in a release, says 75-year-old James Holthaus was southbound on Edwards road, near 222nd Road, when the Kenworth semi went off the roadway, which caused it, and the trailer, to rollover into the ditch.

According to Laurie, Holthaus suffered serious injuries in the wreck, and was transported by Atchison County EMS to Mosaic Lifecare, in St. Joseph, Missouri, for treatment.

The wreck was reported around 3:00 Monday afternoon.
