(KNZA)--A Wednesday afternoon single-vehicle Brown County wreck claimed the life of a Muscotah man.

The Kansas Highway Patrol says killed in the wreck on 330th Road, about one mile east of Raccoon Road, was 24-year-old Cody Carson.

The KHP reports Carson was westbound, when for an unknown reason, his semi-truck left the roadway to the right and entered the north ditch. His semi overturned, stuck a culvert, and came to rest in the ditch at the base of a steep embankment.

Carson, who was not wearing a seat belt, was pronounced dead at the scene.

The wreck was reported about 2:30 p.m.
