ASSARIA - A McPherson teen was trapped in a minivan after it slid across an icy Interstate 135 Sunday night and crashed into a signpost south of Salina.

Saline County Sheriff Roger Soldan said this morning that Logan Vessar, 22, of Idaho, was northbound on I-135 near the Assaria exit at milepost 82 when he lost control of the 2005 Chrysler Town and Country minivan he was driving. The minivan went into the median, crossed the southbound lanes, and struck an interstate signpost.

The accident occurred at approximately 8:05 p.m. Sunday.

A passenger in the minivan, Brianna Leon, 19, McPherson, was trapped in the vehicle, Soldan said. She was extricated from the minivan and transported by EMS to Salina Regional Health Center, he said.
