Lawrence man transported to hospital after rollover accident

A Lawrence man was transported to the hospital last night after a rollover accident south of Lecompton on U.S. Highway 40, one mile east of East 200 Road.

According to Kansas Highway Patrol, 20-year-old Elbert Davis was driving east on U.S. 40 about 10:30 p.m. when his vehicle left the road, entered the south ditch and rolled. The vehicle came to rest on its top.

Davis was first transported to Lawrence Memorial Hospital and later to Stormont-Vail Health Care in Topeka. Jennifer Tinajero, communication coordinator at Stormont-Vail, said Davis is in fair condition.
