08/21/2021

(KNZA)--An early Saturday evening single-vehicle Atchison County wreck sent two Valley Falls residents to the hospital.

The Kansas Highway Patrol says the wreck happened in the 49-hundred block of Bourbon Road about three miles south of Muscotah shortly before 5:30.

The Patrol says 74-year-old Vernie Fox was southbound when the front driver's side tire on his 1998 Dodge Ram pickup truck, which was towing a trailer, failed.  Fox lost control of the vehicle, which left the roadway to the east and entered the ditch.

Fox and his passenger, 74-year-old Evalena Fox, were transported to Topeka's Stormont-Vail Hospital with suspected minor injuries.

The Patrol says they were not buckled up at the time of the wreck.
