One injured in two-vehicle crash

A Stewart woman was injured Sunday when two vehicles collided 6 miles southwest of Hutchinson in Boon Lake Township, Renville County.

At approximately 10:54 a.m., the Renville County Sheriff’s Office responded to a report of a two-vehicle crash at the intersection of County Road 20 and 870th Avenue. According to a report, a 2003 Ford Explorer driven by Russel Kurth, 27, of Stewart was eastbound of 870th Avenue. Kurth approached an uncontrolled gravel intersection and allegedly failed to yield to a 2012 Ford Explorer driven by Nicholas Gasper, 29, of Hutchinson northbound on County Road 20.

Kurth and Gasper were not injured. Tessa Kurth, 25, of Stewart, a passenger in the Ford, was taken to Hutchinson Health by private vehicle with non-life threatening injuries.

All occupants were wearing seat belts.
