Atchison man injured in late Sunday motorcycle crash

(KAIR)--A late Sunday night motorcycle crash, in the 700 block of Atchison's North 8th Streeet, sent the rider to the hospital.

A release from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson says 22-year-old Caleb Cummins, of Atchison, had been northbound on 8th Street when he lost control of the motorcycle, which left the roadway, on the west side of the street, where it struck a mailbox and a metal handrail.

The impact of the crash ejected Cummins from the motorcycle, landing in a residential lawn, located in the 700 block of North 8th Street.

Cummins, following the wreck, was transported by Atchison County EMS to St. Joseph, Missouri's Mosaic Lifecare, where he was treated for his injuries, then released Monday.

The wreck occurred around 11:40 Sunday night. Wilson says charges are pending.
