One person was injured Thursday following another serious crash at the intersection of Highway 24 and Flush Road.

The Pottawatomie County Sheriff’s Office says a van was southbound on Flush Road shortly after 1 p.m., attempting to cross the eastbound lanes of Highway 24. As it was doing so, the van was struck by an eastbound truck pulling a car trailer.

The van driver was injured and transported by Lifestar to a Topeka hospital with serious injuries. The driver of the truck was not injured. Their names were not released.

The Sheriff’s Office says neither driver was wearing their seat belt at the time of the crash.

Thursday’s crash was the second in over a month at that intersection, after a St. George woman was killed there on May 13th.
