HAYS — A domestic disturbance Saturday morning in Hays led to a woman sustaining injuries after jumping from an Interstate 70 overpass.
On 8:47 a.m. Saturday, a 911 call alerted Hays Police to an injured male following a domestic disturbance with his girlfriend at their apartment in the 3700 block of Hall, according to Hays Deputy Police Chief Police Brian Dawson.
The injury was described as a cut to the leg that was causing blood loss, Dawson said.
The man was transported to Hays Medical Center and was reported in stable condition Saturday morning.
At 8:58 a.m., the Ellis County dispatch center received multiple calls of a woman who had jumped from the overpass at 240th Avenue onto the eastbound lane of I-70.
The woman was identified as the girlfriend of the man injured in the earlier incident, Dawson said.
She was transported to Hays Medical Center, as well, and is receiving treatment.
No other injuries were reported.
Due to this being an ongoing investigation, the names of the involved individuals have not been released.
"We want to thank the Kansas Highway Patrol, Ellis County Sheriff's Department and Fort Hays State University Police for their assistance," Dawson said.
