(KNZA)--A late Monday morning two-vehicle Brown County wreck sent two people to the hospital.
Brown County Undersheriff Randy Linck says it happened shortly before 11:00 at the intersection of U.S. 36 Highway and West Oregon Street at the west edge of Hiawatha
Linck says 58-year-old Darle Watson, Jr., of Hiawatha, was driving a car southbound on U.S. 36 when he attempted to make a left turn onto West Oregon Street in front of a northbound pickup truck driven by 49-year-old Michael Goodman, of Hiawatha, and the vehicles collided. The pickup overturned onto its side.
Goodman and a passenger in the Watson vehicle, 47-year-old Sabetha resident Christina Lewis, were transported to the Hiawatha Community Hospital. Goodman received possible injuries and Lewis received unspecified injuries.
Linck says Goodman was the only occupant not wearing a seatbelt.
