BLUE MOUND, Kan.- A Kansas man was injured in an accident just after 11 a.m. on Friday in Linn County.
The Kansas Highway Patrol reported a 2015 Freightliner straight-truck driven by Brian C. Broom, Manford, OK., was eastbound on Kansas 31 two miles west of Blue Mound.
The semi drove off the right side of the roadway. The driver over-corrected and lost control of the truck. It re-entered the roadway, crossed the center lane and rolled onto its passenger side.
A westbound 1994 Ford truck-tractor drive by Randal S. Beckmon, 58, Kincaid, attempted an evasive maneuver to avoid the Frieghtliner, drove into the north ditch and rolled. The vehicles did not collide.
Beckmon was transported to Overland Park Regional Medical Center. Broom was not injured.
The KHP reported neither driver was wearing seat belts.
