(KMZA)--A single-vehicle roll-over wreck in Lyon County Friday afternoon claimed the life of a Wetmore man and left a Wetmore woman hospitalized.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says 79-year-old Wayne Segenhagen was traveling on Interstate-335 when he made an " evasive maneuver" to avoid a slow moving vehicle. He overcorrected and lost control of his Ford Explorer, which overturned several times before coming to rest in a ditch.
Segenhagen was pronounced dead at the scene.
His 76-year-old passenger, Anna Segenhagen, was transported to Topeka's Stormont-Vail Hospital for the treatment of suspected serious injuries.
The Patrol says both were wearing seatbelts when the wreck occurred around 4:20 Friday afternoon.
