(KNZA)--A Thursday morning single-vehicle Leavenworth County crash sent an Easton teenager to the hospital.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says 15-year-old Jack Heim was westbound on K-192, about 2 ½ miles east of Easton, when he lost control of his SUV for an unknown reason. The vehicle went into a ditch, struck a tree, and rolled.
Heim was transported by private vehicle to the Atchison Hospital with what the Patrol described as a suspected serious injury.
The Patrol says Heim was wearing a seatbelt when the wreck happened around 7:15 Thursday morning.
