Three people were injured Tuesday morning in a two-vehicle crash on U.S. 24 in Pottawatomie County.

According to the Kansas Highway Patrol, the crash occurred at about 8:35 a.m.

A 2023 Dodge Durango driven by Eric Martens, 49, of Westmoreland, was traveling southbound on Lake Elbo Road when he failed to yield the right of way to an eastbound 2024 Ford F-250 driven by David Manges, 56, of Manhattan.

The vehicles collided, causing the Durango to rotate and strike the pickup a second time.

Martens sustained a suspected minor injury and was transported to a hospital in Onaga.

Manges and a passenger, Blake Coleman, 23, of Wamego, were transported to Stormont Vail-Manhattan with possible injuries.

The crash report states all three were wearing seat belts.
