(KNZA)--A late Sunday morning two-vehicle Jefferson County crash sent two people to the hospital.
The Kansas Highway Patrol said it happened on U.S. 24 Highway, just west of U.S. 59, around 11:00.
According to the Patrol report, 56-year-old Dwight Mewes, of Ogden, was westbound when he braked for a vehicle in front of him and lost control of his Harley Davidson motorcycle. The motorcycle slid into an eastbound Nissen Frontier.
Mewes was transported to Topeka's Stormont-Vail Hospital with suspected serious injuries.
The driver of the Nissen, 75-year-old Jerry Steinbach, of Topeka, was not hurt.
However, a passenger in his vehicle, 64-year-old Sandra Brokmann, of Topeka, was transported to Stormont-Vail with suspected serious injuries.
The Patrol says Mewes was wearing a helmet when the crash occurred and the two occupants in the Nissen were buckled up.
