September 29th Early Morning Law Enforcement & Fire/Medical wrap up

Lawrence Police arrived on scene of a single vehicle accident near the intersection of E 15th and Pennsylvania Streets at 1:05 this morning. Officers found that the driver of the vehicle had ran from the crashed mini van. The vehicle was said to be "on its side and on top of a tree." A backseat passenger was found inside the vehicle with serious injuries, she was not believed to have been wearing a seat belt at the time of the accident. LDCFM crews responded and the victim, a "21-year-old female", was transported to the University of Kansas Medical Center, just after 2 a.m., by a LifeStar helicopter. Police located and arrested the vehicle's driver a few hours later. More information on this accident can be found here from Operation 100 News, or here from the Lawrence Journal-World.

Police responded on two reported burglaries this morning. The first was reported at 1:45 in the 700 block of Massachusetts Street. The second was reported in the 1400 block of Lawrence Avenue at 2:15. Very few details were available regarding either incident. No arrests were reported.

At 2:30, Kansas Highway Patrol Troopers requested Medics respond for an injury accident in the westbound lanes of Interstate 70. Medics responded to milemarker 199.5, between the Lecompton and West Lawrence interchanges. Troopers reported two people with injuries. Medics reported one of those injuries to be serious and the other to be minor. One person was transported by medics to Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

Lawrence police also responded on two disturbances. No arrests or serious injuries were reported with either of those incidents.
