(KNZA)--A Wednesday evening two-vehicle Brown County wreck claimed the life of a Sabetha couple.

The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened at the intersection of U.S. 75 Highway and 260th Road, a half mile east of Sabetha, around 5:30.

The Patrol says a SUV driven by 61-year-old Rodney Sanner, of Sabetha, had been stopped at the stop sign on eastbound 260th Road. The Patrol says Sanner failed to yield the right-of-way and entered the intersection where his SUV was struck on the driver's side by a southbound pickup truck driven by 58-year-old Efrain Perez-Ordonez, of Grandbury, Texas.

Rodney Sanner and his 53-year-old passenger, Robin Sanner, were pronounced dead at the scene.

Perez-Ordonez was not injured.
