Lyon County deputies say an Emporia teenager suffered apparently minor injuries after a rollover crash northeast of Emporia on Monday.
Deputy Curtis Morse says the crash near Roads 190 and P-5 was reported around 11:45 am. Deputies found an SUV had rolled onto the passenger side in a field. The driver, 17-year-old Braxton Malone, says he was eastbound on Road 190 when he approached a curve in the road. Malone says the rear end started fishtailing and he could not regain control. The SUV left the road and rolled.
Malone was wearing his seatbelt at the time of the crash. He was not transported by ambulance for medical care.
