Citations have not been ruled out after a reported injury crash southwest of Reading led to no hospital transports late Saturday afternoon.
Lyon County Deputy Robert Miller says the wreck involved an SUV and pickup and developed shortly before 5:30 pm at the intersection of Roads 200 and X, about seven miles south-southwest of Reading and 10 miles east-northeast of Emporia. Miller says the SUV, driven by 59-year-old Larry Emley of Lebo, was westbound on Road 200, while a pickup driven by 37-year-old Alan Ibbetson of Yates Center was southbound on X. Early indications are Ibbetson was in the intersection when Emley entered it. Emley’s SUV then hit the Ibbetson pickup.
All involved — Ibbetson, Emley and a passenger in Emley’s SUV, 48-year-old Chantel Drewes of Austin, Texas — were treated at the scene and declined additional hospital treatment.
Miller says a decision on citations will be made after the investigation is complete.
Besides deputies, emergency crews from Emporia and Reading responded.
