(KNZA)--A late Tuesday morning three-vehicle Jefferson County wreck sent one person to the hospital.
The Kansas Highway Patrol said it happened at the intersection of K-4 Highway and 39th Street shortly before noon.
The Patrol said a northbound car driven by 40-year-old Elizabeth Parker, of Silver Lake, was slowing to turn west onto 39th Street when it was struck in the rear by a northbound car driven by 23-year-old Joseph Hodgkiss-Epling, of Meriden. The impact caused Parker's car to cross the center line where it struck a southbound pickup truck driven by 40-year-old Jared Tyler, of Valley Falls.
Parker was transported to Topeka's Stormont-Vail Hospital with suspected serious injuries. The other two drivers were not hurt.
The Patrol said all three drivers were wearing seat belts when the wreck occurred.
