A Missouri man was cited after a two-vehicle wreck in central Salina Thursday morning.
Michael Eckert, 35, of Missouri, was southbound on S. Ninth Street in a 1998 Acura TL when he failed to stop for the red light at the W. South Street intersection and collided with an eastbound 2013 Toyota Corolla driven by Tara McMullen, 39, of Salina, according to Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester. The collision occurred at approximately 7:50 a.m. Thursday.
The impact spun the Acura around and it ended up in the front yard of 400 S. Ninth Street.
McMullen received minor injuries and was transported by EMS to Salina Regional Health Center, Forrester reported.
Both the Acura and the Corolla had front end damage and were towed from the scene.
According to Forrester, Eckert was cited for failing to stop at a stoplight and no proof of insurance.
