Formal charges are pending after a reported injury crash south of Emporia on Tuesday.
Lyon County Deputy Eric Williams says the wreck happened in a field in the 1100 block of Road 150, or between Road K and Kansas Highway 99. The crash happened shortly after 7:30 pm.
Williams says 32-year-old Phillip Scott Lieurance of Emporia was driving an SUV westbound on Road 150. He told deputies he wanted to do “donuts,” or a series of sharp circular turns, so he did. That led to Lieurance overturning his SUV.
Six people inside the SUV — 23-year-old Haley Wing of Emporia and five juveniles, all of Emporia, received minor injuries and declined medical treatment. Everybody inside the SUV were wearing seatbelts.
