A local woman was slightly injured in a two-vehicle wreck Monday afternoon in southwest Salina.

Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester said this morning that Lisa Gormley, 62, of Salina, was driving southwest on Royal Drive in a 2004 Suzuki XL7 when she failed to yield the right-of-way at Derby Street and struck a 1999 Ford Ranger pickup driven by a 16-year-old Salina boy.

After the collision, the Suzuki went southbound over a curb and struck a utility trailer and two chainlink fences before coming to a stop.

Gormley suffered minor injuries, but was not transported to the hospital, Forrester said. A 27-year-old female passenger in the Suzuki was not injured. No injuries were reported for the teen pickup driver.

The Suzuki sustained major front-end damage and the Ranger sustained front and driver-side damage. Both vehicles were towed from the scene.

Gormley was cited for failure to yield the right-of-way at an intersection, Forrester said.
