Two Junction City teenagers were injured Wednesday morning in rural Saline County following a police pursuit that ended in a crash.
According to the Kansas Highway Patrol, 15-year-old Joseph Doss was driving a stolen Hyundai Elantra while actively fleeing from law enforcement headed west on Interstate 70. Doss exited onto Ohio Street, northeast of Salina and continued northbound. As the asphalt turned to gravel, Doss lost control of the vehicle and it left the roadway to the right, making contact with an embankment. The car landed on its top in the roadway.
Doss and a passenger, 18-year-old Landon Alexander were transported from the scene to Salina Regional Hospital for treatment of minor injuries.
