(KNZA)--A St. Joseph, Missouri man was injured Sunday afternoon in a weather-related crash in western Kansas.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says 65-year-old Vincent Weiss was westbound on Interstate-70 in Russell County during severe weather conditions when a strong gust of wind hit his semi-truck, pushing it across both lanes of westbound I-70 and into the median, where it rolled onto the driver's side.
Weiss was transported to the Russell Regional Hospital when suspected minor injuries.
The Patrol says he was wearing a seat belt when the wreck occurred around 3:45 Sunday afternoon.
