One person was transported to the hospital after a two-vehicle wreck Friday evening in south Salina.

Terry Oard, 75, of Salina, was northwest-bound on Bret Avenue in a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado at approximately 6 p.m. Friday. Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester said Oard failed to yield and struck a 2018 GMC Sierra driven by Alicia Castro, 52, of Salina, that was northeast-bound on Edward Street.

A 73-year-old female passenger in the Sierra was injured and transported to Salina Regional Health Center, Forrester said.

The Silverado sustained driver-side front-end damage. The Sierra sustained front and passenger-side damage and was towed.

Forrester said Oard was cited for failure to yield and no proof of insurance.
