(KNZA)--An early Saturday evening two-vehicle Jackson County crash claimed the life of a Topeka woman and left two other Topeka residents seriously injured.
According to a report from the Kansas Highway Patrol, 77-year-old Dianna Slavens was entering U.S. 75 Highway from a private drive about three miles south of Holton when she failed to yield to a northbound Toyota Rav4 and her Honda CR-V was struck broadside.
Slavens was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver of the Toyota, 38-year-old Jamie Wells, and a passenger in the Honda, 89-year-old Alva Goff, Jr., were both transported to the Holton Community Hospital with suspected serious injuries.
The Patrol says all three occupants were wearing seat belts when the wreck occurred shortly after 5:00 Saturday evening.
