(KNZA)--A rear-end collision late Wednesday afternoon in Jefferson County sent two to the hospital.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened shortly before 5:00 at the intersection of K-4 Highway and 66th Street.
The Patrol says 47-year-old Meriden resident Nicole Hazelton was stopped in the southbound lane of K-4, waiting to turn left, when her car was rear-ended by a vehicle driven by 20-year-old Independence, Kansas resident Joseph Farnsworth.
Farnsworth and a passenger in his vehicle, 21-year-old Topeka resident Tyler Chenoweth, were transported to Topeka's Stormont-Vail hospital with unspecified injuries.
Another passenger in the Farnsworth vehicle and Hazelton were not hurt.
The Patrol says all the occupants were buckled up when the wreck occurred.
