On June 30, James McKenzie, 59, Council Grove was traveling on South 1000 Road and K4 Highway when his vehicle hit several pot holes in the road, causing his 2002 Chevy Silverado to leave the roadway and run over a wingwall. The truck then struck a tree, with damage done to the vehicle’s front end. No injuries were reported.
