The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened on U.S. 75 Highway, just north of Northwest Silver Lake Road, shortly after 12 noon.

The driver of the SUV, 74-year-old Gilbert O'Shea, and his passenger, 75-year-old Lois O'Shea, were both transported to a Topeka hospital for treatment.
The Patrol says Lois O'Shea suffered suspected serious injuries, while Gilbert O'Shea suffered suspected minor injuries. Neither was wearing a seat belt when the crash occurred.
