Donley County emergency personnel were kept busy with multiple accidents this past weekend, beginning Friday morning with an accident between Hedley and Lelia Lake on US 287.
DPS Trooper Lynn Mays said a man driving with a group of motorcyclists was on his way to Amarillo when he went into the median and rolled his bike. The man was fortunate to have only suffered a broken leg, Mays said.
Later that day, a pickup traveling eastbound on US 287 in Lelia Lake drifted into the curb then went across the center line into oncoming traffic and was hit by a westbound semi-truck. Mays said no injuries were sustained in that accident.
Mays said another accident on Saturday in Hedley was a single vehicle rollover involving a car with three people. The driver, who had an open container, had to be transported to the hospital. Sunday evening, Mays said another accident occurred at Greenbelt Lake when a car rolled over on the road to Kincaid Park in a case of Driving While Intoxicated. There were no injuries in that case, Mays said.
