(KNZA)--A Thursday morning single-vehicle Brown County wreck sent two to the hospital.

The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened on K-20 Highway at King Fisher Road shortly after 8:00.

The Patrol says a Ford Explorer driven by 28-year-old Cory Herbers, of Horton, was westbound when he lost control of his vehicle on an icy patch. His vehicle traveled into the ditch and overturned.

Two passengers, both of Horton, were injured. 46-year-old Carrie Steimel was transported to Hiawatha's Amberwell Hospital with suspected minor injuries. 6-year-old Easton Herbers was transported to Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City with suspected minor injuries.

The Patrol says all three occupants were properly restrained when the wreck occurred.
