A collision between a 2014 Kia Sorento and a 2011 Hyundai Sonata, Thursday, resulted in possible/unknown injuries to a Red Oak teen. Red Oak Police say the accident in the parking lot of the Montgomery County Memorial Hospital (MCMH) happened at around 2-p.m.  Authorities say the Hyundai, driven by 17-year old Alexia Ann Fridolph, of Red Oak, was traveling east through the parking lot, as the KIA, driven by 16-year old Chance Eldon Kline, of Essex, was traveling southbound. Kline told police he didn’t see the other vehicle. The KIA struck the Hyundai on the driver’s side door area.

When Fridolph complained of a slight amount of pain following the collision, officers contacted rescue to have her checked out. The teen was then transported to MCMH for further evaluation. Damage from the collision amounted to $2,700. Both vehicles were able to be driven from the scene. No citations were issued. The owner of the Sonata was identified as Timothy Fridolph, of Red Oak, while the KIA is owned by Cybill Erickson, of Essex.
