SALINE COUNTY — Law enforcement authorities are investigating a Kansas man on multiple charges after racing a truck down city streets in Salina.

Just after 9p.m. Tuesday, a 2002 Chevy Silverado driven by Ronald Hanchett, 44, Salina, was racing a 2012 Infiniti G20 driven by 17-year-old Koltin Montey of Salina, down Broadway Street in Salina, according to police Capt. Paul Forrester.

As the vehicle turned onto South Ninth Street, the Chevy rear-ended the Infiniti, traveled into the median and rolled.

Police arrested Hanchett and booked him into the Saline County Jail for child endangerment, driving under the influence, following too close, speeding and transporting alcohol.

A 36-year-old Salina women and two children under the age of five in the Chevy were transported to Salina Regional Hospital for observation.

The children in the Silverado were properly restrained at the time of the accident, according to Forrester.
Montey was not injured in the accident but was cited, according to Forrester.
