DICKINSON COUNTY— One person was injured in an accident just before 4:30p.m. Sunday in Dickinson County.

The Kansas Highway Patrol reported a 2013 Chevy Cruze driven by Jennifer Huerta, 24, Junction City, was westbound on Interstate 70 six miles west of Abilene.

The Cruze approached and swerved to avoid rear-ended two other westbound vehicles. The driver overcorrected and struck a 1991 Chevy Blazer driven by Samuel Payne, 60, Abilene.

Huerta was transported to the hospital in Salina. Payne was wearing a seat belt and not injured. The KHP did not report Huerta’s seat belt usage.
