Kansas woman killed in crash after Wichita driver failed to yield at stop sign, KHP says

A woman was killed in a central Kansas crash Tuesday evening after the driver in another vehicle failed to yield at a stop sign, state troopers said.

The Kansas Highway Patrol reported in an online crash log that emergency crews were called at around 6:15 p.m. to an injury accident at the junction of K-19 and U.S. 281 about a mile east of Seward in Stafford County.

Investigators determined that a 2008 Dodge Magnum driven by Seth Osborn, 38, of Wichita, was eastbound on K-19 and “failed to yield at a stop sign,” troopers wrote in the report. The car collided with a 2012 Chrysler Town and Country that was northbound on U.S. 281.

Osborn was taken to a Great Bend hospital with suspected serious injuries.

A passenger in the Chrysler van was pronounced dead. She was identified in the KHP report as 73-year-old Judy M. McKiearnan, of Louisburg. The 28-year-old St. John woman driving the van was hospitalized with a suspected serious injury, as were a 28-year-old male passenger and a 13-year-old female passenger. A 7-year-old girl and a 4-year-old boy were hospitalized with suspected minor injuries.
