Crash causes severe damage to vehicles, injuries unknown

A crash shortly before 11 a.m. Monday caused severe damage to the two pickup trucks involved and unknown injuries to the drivers. Two Hutchinson ambulances were called to the scene at the recently reopened intersection of Airport Road and McLeod County Road 7, just southwest of Hutchinson. As a result of the reconstruction of Airport Road/County Road 115, traffic on that road now has the right of way with no stop signs, while traffic on County Road 7 has stop signs. The crash is being investigated by the McLeod County Sheriff’s Department.
