Teens transported following Wednesday wreck

(KAIR)--Two Easton teens escaped serious injury in a Wednesday morning, single vehicle, Leavenworth County crash.

According to a report from the Kansas Highway Patrol, 17-year-old Grace Stewart was behind the wheel of a Dodge Dakota, eastbound on K-192, just east of Easton, when the pickup truck went off the right shoulder of the road.

Stewart over-corrected back onto the highway, but was not able to regain control of the truck, which again left the roadway onto the right shoulder, where it struck road signs and the ditch embankment.

Stewart was transported to the University of Kansas Hospital with what the KHP identified as a possible injury, due to a complaint of pain.

A passenger, 14-year-old Andrew Stewart, was transported to the same hospital with what the report calls a suspected minor injury.

Both were buckled up at the time of the wreck, which occurred shortly before 7:30 Wednesday morning.
