(KNZA)--A Topeka motorcyclist was injured Thursday afternoon in a two-vehicle crash in Jackson County

The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened on U.S. 75 Highway, just north of Holton near Rodgers Drive, around 3:30.

According to the KHP report, the driver of a Ford Explorer was stopped or slowing down due to traffic conditions when a southbound motorcycle approached from behind, lost control and overturned, striking the rear of the SUV.

The motorcylist, 36-year-old Matthew Scott, was transported to a Topeka hospital with suspected serious injuries.

The driver of the Explorer, 70-year-old Raphael Haverkamp, of Goff, was not hurt.

The Patrol says Scott was not wearing a helmet when the crash occurred.
