Weekend wreck injures two
12/03/2018

(KAIR)--A deer in the roadway is listed as the cause of a weekend Atchison County crash that sent two to the hospital.

Injured in the early Saturday morning wreck were the driver, 50-year-old Thomas McLaughlin II, of Muscotah, and his passenger, 42-year-old Heidi Hauk, of Atchison.

A report issued by Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie said McLaughlin was southbound on Anderson Road when he swerved to miss a deer in his path. That caused him to lose control of the 2006 GMC Yukon, which struck the barrier of a bridge, located just north of 270th Road.

Both McLaughlin and Hauk were transported to the Atchison Hospital for treatment following the crash that happened around 3:20 Saturday morning.
