POTTER – A Kansas woman was injured in an accident just before 6 p.m. on Friday in Atchison County.

The Kansas Highway Patrol reported a 2008 Dodge pickup driven by Kurtis C. Springstead, 31, Bonner Springs, was southbound on U.S. 73 four mile east of Potter.

An unidentified northbound vehicle went left of center causing Springstead to make an avoidance maneuver.

He lost control of the vehicle and crossed the centerline.

A northbound 2013 Nissan Altima driven by Jennifer L. Keith, 25, Atchison, swerved to avoid striking the Dodge. The two vehicles collided on the east gravel shoulder of the road.

The unidentified vehicle left the scene.

Keith was transported to Atchison Hospital. Springstead was not injured.

The KHP reported both were properly restrained at the time of the accident.
