The first happened around 9:50, at 18th and Main Street, where Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson says a Dodge Ram, driven by 63-year-old Richard Dyer, of Atchison, had been northbound on 10th Street when it struck the rear of a northbound Ford Focus, driven by 37-year-old Jessica Stecker, of Atchison.
Atchison County EMS was called to the scene where, Wilson says, they examined both drivers, but no one was transported for hospital care.
According to Wilson, Dyer was cited for following too close, while Stecker was cited for no insurance.
The second wreck, this one at 2:15 Sunday afternoon, happened at K-7 Highway and Royal Road where, Wilson says, a Ford Escape, driven northbound on the highway by 18-year-old Atchison resident Abrie Handke struck the rear of a Chevrolet Equinox in front of her, and driven by 32-year-old Kiley Surritt, of Atchison.
Atchison County EMS was on the scene, determining no one was injured.
Handke, Wilson says, was cited for following too close.
