(KNZA)--A Friday afternoon two-vehicle Jackson County wreck claimed the life of an elderly Delia woman and left a Horton man injured.
The Jackson County Sheriff's Office said happened on U.S. 75 Highway about one mile south of Holton.
The Kansas Highway Patrol reports a 90-year-old Eudora McQueen was driving a Lincoln Town Car west across northbound U.S. 75 after exiting a business and failed to yield the right-of-way to a northbound Chevy Volt driven by 56-year-old Sammy Ramirez. Ramirez struck McQueen's car on the driver's side.
McQueen was transported to Topeka's Stormont-Vail Hospital where she died.
Ramirez was transported to the Holton Community Hospital with suspected serious injuries.
The Patrol says both drivers were bucked up when the wreck occurred shortly after 3:30.
