Injuries, charges, follow Saturday wreck

(KAIR)--A two vehicle Saturday afternoon Atchison County wreck led to injuries and charges for a Kansas City, Missouri woman.

According to a report from Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, 37-year-old Ashley Heags attempted to flee from the scene of the wreck, which happened in the 5000 block of U.S. Highway 73, around 12:20.

During her attempt to escape the crash scene, her vehicle became inoperable, and Atchison County Sheriff’s Deputies located her a mile south of where the wreck occurred.

Heags was issued a notice to appear in court for driving under the influence, driving while revoked, no insurance, wrong license plate on her vehicle, transporting an open container, failure to stop and render aid at the scene of an accident, and driving left of center.

Complaining of arm pain, the report says Heags was transported for hospitalized treatment.

Heags was southbound in the northbound lane, or shoulder, of U.S. Highway 73 when she struck the rear passenger side of a northbound vehicle.

The driver of that vehicle, 49-year-old Midonna Powell, of Weston, Missouri, was not hurt.
