(KNZA)--A Thursday morning two-vehicle Jefferson County wreck sent one person to the hospital.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened on U.S. 24 Highway, just east of Clark Road, shortly before 10:15.

Newton was transported to Topeka's Stormont-Vail Hospital for the treatment of suspected serious injuries.
