A Nortonville woman was killed and four others were seriously injured in an early Saturday morning wrong-way crash in Jefferson County.

The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened on K-4 Highway, just north of 62nd Street, near Meriden, around 6:20 

The KHP says 67-year-old Loretta Stewart was traveling southbound in the northbound lane of K-4 when her Ford Taurus struck a northbound Dodge Journey head-on . 

Stewart, who was alone in her vehicle, was pronounced dead at the scene. 

The driver of the Dodge, 27-year-old Phillip Webster, of Fort Riley, and three passengers in his vehicle-- 21-year-old Shianne Webster, a 6-year-old girl and 2-month-old infant-- were transported to area hospitals with suspected serious injuries. 

The Patrol says all the occupants were properly restrained.
