One person was injured Friday in work zone crash on I-70 in Geary County.
According to the Kansas Highway Patrol crash, a Toyota Highlander was traveling eastbound around 9:15 pm near mile post 301, when the driver swerved to avoid an animal in the road. That caused a trailing semi truck to strike the Highlander from behind. The roadway was down to a single lane of traffic due to construction.
The 24-year-old semi driver from Mississippi, was transported to a local hospital with only a minor injury. The other driver, 64-year-old Jeffrey Tanner, of Manhattan, was not injured.
