(KNZA)--A Jefferson County crash involving two motorcycles claimed one life and left three others injured.
The Kansas Highway Patrol reports it happened Saturday afternoon on K-92 about two miles east of Ozawkie.
The Patrol says 57-year-old Kansas City, Missouri resident Debra Elling was the passenger on a Harley Davidson motorcycle that rear-ended another motorcycle, causing her motorcycle to slide into a ditch.
Elling was transported to a Topeka hospital where she died early Sunday morning.
Her 59-year-old husband, Timmy, and the two riders on the other motorcycle, also from Kansas City, were transported to a Topeka hospital for the treatment of unspecified injuries.
The Patrol says all the riders involved were wearing helmets.
