SALINA – Two people were injured in an accident in a crosswalk Wednesday morning in Salina.
Salina Police Sgt. James Feldman reported a 2002 Ford Ranger driven by Donald Weers, 82, Salina, was eastbound on Walnut Street attempting a turn north onto Santa Fe.
The pickup struck a motorized wheelchair operated by a 61-year-old woman with a 9-year-old passenger that were in the crosswalk.
The woman complained of pain in her hip, back and face and possibly had several broken ribs, according to the accident report. The boy had abrasions and a possible broken right clavicle. They were both transported to Salina Regional Health Center.
Weers was cited for failure to yield to pedestrians at a crosswalk, according to Feldman.
