A Parsons man is seriously injured in a Sunday evening car accident.

29-year-old Bryar Cares suffered serious injuries last night when he lost control of his Ford F-350 pick up truck while driving on a gravel road about 9 miles east of Parsons. His truck slid into a concrete culvert and rolled an unknown number of times before coming to rest. According to the Kansas Highway Patrol, Cares was not wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash.

He was taken to a Joplin hospital for treatment.
