The Kansas Highway Patrol says a boy, 15, was seriously injured in a crash as he was fleeing from Atchison police.
The patrol says officers began pursuing a pickup truck early Friday on Main Street in Atchison. The report does not indicate what prompted the pursuit. The truck eventually left the road and hit a building. The driver, who was not wearing a seat belt, was thrown from the truck.
He was taken to the University of Kansas Hospital in Kansas City, Kansas. No one else was in the pickup.
