(KAIR)--A Denison resident requires hospital care following a single-vehicle Monday afternoon Jackson County rollover crash.
Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse says it happened near 178th Road and U.S. Highway 75 when 29-year-old Shea Deegen was southbound on the highway.
Deegen's car went off the west side of the roadway, then headed southwest, crashing into a Kansas Department of Transportation fence.
The impact caused the car to rollover numerous times, landing over 100 yards west of the highway, where it struck a tree.
Deegen was transported by Jackson County EMS to a Topeka hospital for the treatment of what Morse identifies as non-life-threatening injuries.
The crash, which happened around 4:00, remains under investigation by the Sheriff's Department.
Assisting at the scene was the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation Police, Fire, and EMS, the Mayetta Fire Department, and the Kansas Highway Patrol.
