A Reading woman was involved in a vehicle-deer crash early Sunday and went to Newman Regional Health for treatment as a result.
Lyon County Deputy Nathan Rankin says deputies and Emporia-Lyon County EMS were called to the 2200 block of Burlingame Road, about four miles northeast of Emporia, shortly before 2 am. The investigation shows 53-year-old Sonja Darlene Parker was driving a minivan northbound when a deer crossed the road. Parker’s van suffered “substantial damage” in the wreck.
Parker was wearing her seatbelt and had apparently minor injuries, but she was still brought to Newman Regional Health afterward.
