Fiery Wreck Leaves Horton Man Injured

(KAIR)--A fiery single vehicle rollover wreck leaves a Horton man injured.

According to the Kansas Highway Patrol, it happened Saturday, in Smith County, Kansas, when 19-year-old Connor Waser was northbound on K-181, a mile north of the Osborne/Smith County line. 

The Patrol reports Waser had just passed a vehicle when his Chevy Camaro went onto the right hand shoulder of the road. Waser overcorrected, sending the car across the road and into the west ditch where it struck a driveway, and rolled, colliding with a tree row and catching on fire. 

Waser, and his 22-year-old passenger, Tyler Harnett, of Hoisington , were both transported to the Osborne County Memorial Hospital for treatment of their injuries. 

The Patrol says Waser was not wearing a seatbelt, while Harnett was buckled up, when the wreck happened shortly before 2:30 Saturday morning.
