A Junction City man, Wilmer Baquero, 42, was taken to Geary Community Hospital for treatment of a possible injury following a two vehicle accident on I-70 in Riley County Sunday.
The Kansas Highway Patrol said Baquero was eastbound on the interstate in a Chrysler Charter when a Crown Victoria driven by James Wilkins, 54, Manhattan lost control and slid in front of him, resulting in a collision. Baquero’s vehicle slid to the south and struck a KDOT delineator post, and came to rest in the center median.
Wilkins was not injured.
Both drivers were wearing seat belts.
