Dust led to a seven-vehicle chain reaction of accidents on Interstate 70 Friday, according to the Kansas Highway Patrol.
All seven vehicles were westbound on I-70 in Geary County when the first crash occurred about 4:10 p.m.
“Visibility was minimal due to a dust storm,” a KHP trooper wrote in a crash log. “Vehicles 1 and 2 collided, causing a chain reaction.”
Of the eight people in the seven vehicles, two suffered injuries in the ensuing crashes.
