(KNZA)--Two individuals were injured Saturday afternoon in a rear-end collision during a pursuit in Brown County.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says 41-year-old Billy Archie, of Lake, Mississippi, was eastbound on K-20 Highway being pursued by law enforcement when his car struck the rear of an eastbound pickup truck at 5th Avenue West in the city of Horton.
Archie and a passenger in his vehicle, 24-year-old Bridgette Mercado, of San Antonio, Texas, were transported to the Hiawatha Community Hospital. The Patrol said Mercado suffered suspected serious injuries and Archie suspected minor injuries.
The driver of the pickup, 57-year-old Jay Mohr, of Platte City, Missouri, was not hurt.
The Patrol says all three occupants were buckled up when the wreck happened shortly before 3:00 Saturday afternoon.
