(KAIR)--Wet pavement, following morning rainfall, is blamed for a late Friday morning bicycle wreck that sent an Atchison man to the hospital.
According to Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson, 22-year-old Sam Morales was riding a bicycle, around 11:30 Friday morning, when he attempted to turn into a driveway at 216 South 10th Street. As he did, Wilson says the tires of the bicycle slipped on the wet pavement causing Morales to fall off the bike.
Morales was transported by Atchison County EMS to Mosaic Life Care, in Saint Joseph, Missouri, for the treatment of his injuries.
