(KNZA)--A late Friday night single-vehicle Jefferson County wreck claimed the life of a Topeka man and left another person injured.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened on K-237, south of SW 46th Street, around 10:30.
The Patrol says 21-year-old Morgan Kabler, of Lawrence, was southbound when the passenger side tires of her pickup truck dropped of the roadway. Kabler overcorrected back onto the roadway, causing her vehicle to roll into the west ditch.
A passenger, 66-year-old Robert Ellis, was pronounced dead at the scene.
Kabler was transported to a Topeka hospital for the treatment of suspected minor injuries.
The Patrol said neither occupant was wearing a seatbelt.
