traffic crash
(KNZA)--A McLouth man was injured Sunday afternoon in a 4-vehicle crash in Douglas County.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened on U.S. 24 Highway, north of U.S. 40 Highway, just before 3:30.
According to the Patrol report, a semi truck was slowing down on the highway to turn into a private drive. 49-year-old Joseph Hill, of McLouth, was slowing down behind the semi when a pickup truck driven by 19-year-old Oskaloosa resident Chase Peck, which the Patrol says was following too close, struck the rear of Hill's cargo van. That caused Hill's van to strike the rear of the semi. A car then struck the rear of the Peck's pickup.
Hill was transported to a Topeka hospital with suspected serious injuries. None of the other three drivers were injured.
The Patrol says all four occupants were wearing seat belts when the crash occurred.
