Authorities in Montgomery County say a teenager suffered minor head and arm injuries during an accident that took place just before 2-p.m., Thursday. The accident happened in the 100 block of North 5th Avenue. Officials say a 2000 Chevy Suburban driven by 38-year old Melynda Walker, of Villisca, was pulling out of a driveway and headed North. As the SUV left the driveway and continued north, 17-year old Gypsy Walker, also of Villisca, ran and jumped on the trailer hitch of the vehicle.

The teen fell and hit her head and arms on the road. The vehicle being driven by Melynda Walker left the scene. Gypsy Walker was taken by Villisca Rescue to the Montgomery County Hospital for treatment of her injuries, which officials said appeared to have been minor. Charges are pending completion of the accident investigation.
