Critical Injuries In A Lawrence KS Long Fall



I
was tipped around 1:20 am Saturday morning that 2 people fell 10 to 12 feet off a retaining wall on 9th Street just west of Emery in Lawrence and one of them was in pretty bad shape.



Lawrence/Douglas County EMS said that one of the victim's condition was critical- the other in serious condition. An attempt was made to fly-in a medical helicopter but the choppers weren't flying because of "low visibilities."

Both patients were taken to Lawrence Memorial hospital- with the critical patient "a 23-year-old female"- later transferred by L/DC-EMS to K.U. Med Center.
