(KNZA)--Two separate Brown County wrecks Wednesday morning left three injured.

The first wreck happened shortly after 8:30 on U.S. 75 Highway in the vicinity of 160th Road.

Sheriff John Merchant says 65-year-old Kathleen Gustafson, of Nogales, Arizona was northbound when her Ford 500 passenger car left the roadway, causing it to pitch side to side, totaling the vehicle.

Gustafson and her 70-year-old passenger, Peter Gustafson, were both transported to the Hiawatha Community Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Merchant says both were wearing their seatbelts.

The second wreck happened on U.S. 36 Highway just west of Foxtail Road around 11:30.

Merchant says Amanda Grant, of Fairview, was westbound and stopped to make a left turn into a driveway when she was hit from behind by a vehicle driven by Margueretta Clary of Sabetha.

Merchant said one of two juvenile passengers in Grant's vehicle sustained minor injuries. He says both were in approved child restraint devices.

No other injuries were reported.
