(KNZA)--A Kansas Highway Patrol trooper was injured Saturday afternoon in a three-vehicle wreck involving a Valley Falls woman.

It happened on Interstate-70 about 7 1/2 miles west of Topeka shortly before 2:15.

The Patrol says 19-year-old Suvana Badgett was eastbound when she lost control of her Volkswagon Beetle and struck a patrol car that was legally parked on the left shoulder, partially in the grassy median, with its emergency lights activated. Badgett's car then struck an unoccupied vehicle in the grassy median which had been involved in a previous crash.

A trooper sitting in the passenger seat of the patrol car, 29-year-old Topeka resident Scott Moses, was transported to a Topeka hospital for the treatment of unspecified injuries.

Badgett was not hurt.
