No serious injuries in Atchison wreck

(KAIR)--A semi and car collided Thursday afternoon, at the Omaha Junction, west of Atchison, but serious injuries were avoided.  

According to a release from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, a car, driven by Atchison resident Frank Busenbarrick, southbound on the connecting link of U.S. Highway 73 and U.S. Highway 59, proceeded to cross U.S. 59, after stopping at the stop sign. That’s when his car was struck by an eastbound semi tractor-trailer.

The 57-year-old Busenbarrick was treated at the scene by Atchison County EMS, but was not transported.  

According to Wilson, Busenbarrick was cited for failure to yield, expired tag, and no proof of insurance.  

The truck driver, from Iowa, was not hurt.
