HUDSONS INJURED IN CAR ACCIDENT

Two Ellsworth residents were injured Sunday when the Ford Explorer they were in hit a guard rail on Interstate Highway 70 then bounced over it and rolled. According to a report from the Kansas Highway Patrol, Robert J. Hudson, 60, Ellsworth, was driving west in the passing lane of I-70 three miles east of the Kansas Highway 156 exit about 3:15 p.m. Sunday when he topped the crest of a hill. Blowing snow made the road slick, and Hudson lost control. Robert Hudson and his passenger, Tracy Hudson, 53, Ellsworth, were wearing seat belts. Robert Hudson was taken to Salina Regional Health Center, then transferred to Via Christi Regional Medical Center's St. Francis Campus in Wichita, where he was listed in fair condition Monday. Tracy Hudson was taken to Ellsworth County Medical Center. A spokesperson said that because of federal privacy laws, no information could be released about Hudson.
