JOHNSON COUNTY —Law enforcement authorities continue to investigate an accident that sent a woman to the
hospital just before 3:30a.m. Wednesday in Johnson County.

According to Leawood Police, a Kia compact vehicle driven by a 28-year-old woman traveled southbound through a
red light at State Line Road just off Interstate 435.

The car struck the right rear of a westbound Freightliner semi driven by a 70-year-old Overland Park man. The truck
continued to the on-ramp to westbound Interstate 435 and dragged the car underneath for the next eight miles.
Both vehicles finally came to rest near Lackman Road in Lenexa.
