KEARNEY, Neb. (AP) — Police in Kearney are looking for a vehicle involved in an explosion or a fire that left a Kansas woman with significant burns.
Kearney police say they received a report on Tuesday evening that burning items had been dumped in an alley. Around the same time, authorities learned that a woman had been burned at the same location.
Sgt. Tony Cordova said witnesses described a fire or explosion, and that a red 1998 Ford Taurus with Kansas license plates 206FUF left the scene.
The Kansas woman was transferred to the burn unit at St. Elizabeth’s Regional Medical Center in Lincoln. She’s in critical but stable condition.
Cordova says two others may have also been injured, and officers are looking for them.
