(KLZA)-- A Humboldt teenager suffered non-life threatening injuries in a wreck in Dawson involving a pickup and two semi's.
The wreck report is incomplete at this time, but Richardson County Sheriff Don Pounds tells MSC News 17-year-old Terrance Bohling of Humboldt had stopped his 2009 Dodge pickup at a STOP sign in Dawson. His view was obstructed by a legally parked semi-truck.
When Bohling pulled onto Highway 75 he was hit broadside by a semi-tractor trailer driven by Terry Newland of Gretna, Nebraska. Newland was not injured.
The semi hit the pickup in the drivers side door. Emergency crews had to use the Jaws-of-Life to free Bohling from the pickup which was totaled in the wreck.
The impact disabled the brakes on the pickup and it rolled into a parked semi.
The semi Newland was driving sustained an estimated $20-thousand in damage. The parked semi was not damaged.
Bohling was transported to the Nemaha County Hospital in Auburn where he was treated and released.
