(KNZA)--A three-vehicle Friday morning wreck in Jefferson County sends two to the hospital.

The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened shortly after 10:15 on K-4 Highway, just north of Harper Lane.

The Patrol says a Buick Lesabre driven by 93-year-old Nortonville resident Clifford Lobb and  a Dodge Charger driven by 36-year-old Jeffrey Smith, of Atchison, were stopped on K-4 waiting for a vehicle to turn into a gas station when a pickup truck rear-ended Smith’s car, causing it to rear-end  Lobb’s vehicle.

Lobb, and a passenger in his vehicle, 83-year-old Cora Lobb, were transported to Topeka’s Stormont Vail Healthcenter with unspecified injuries.

The driver of the pickup truck, 64-year-old Meriden resident Richard Allerheiligen, was not hurt.  Also Smith and two passengers in his vehicle escaped injury.

The Patrol says all the occupants were wearing seatbelts.
