(KAIR)--A Leavenworth woman is dead, and a young child injured, following a single vehicle, late Thursday afternoon Wyandotte County crash.

Dead is 23-year-old Shailee Viramontes, killed when, according to the Kansas Highway Patrol, her car ran off the road and crashed into a pole. That happened while Viramontes was southbound on I-435. The KHP report states it's unknown why the vehicle left the roadway.

Injured in Thursday's wreck was 3-year-old Malachi Viramontes, with the child transported to Children's Mercy Hospital, in Kansas City, for the treatment of what KHP calls suspected serious injuries.

Seatbelts were being worn at the time of the wreck, which occurred shortly before 5:00 Thursday evening.
