Newton, KS (November 25, 2024) – A two-vehicle collision at U.S. 50 and North East Lake Road on Friday morning resulted in serious injuries. The crash occurred at approximately 11:49 a.m. and involved a Ford Expedition and a Ram 1500.

According to authorities, the crash happened when a 2011 Ford Expedition, driven by Madison Jo Vinduska of Marion, Kansas, attempted to turn left from eastbound U.S. 50 onto North East Lake Road. The driver failed to yield to a westbound 2015 Ram 1500 driven by Kanitra Reatha Crump of Wichita, Kansas, resulting in a collision. The impact pushed the Ford onto the north shoulder, while the Ram spun and came to rest in the westbound lanes of U.S. 50.

A passenger in the Ford, 3-year-old Miller Vinduska, suffered minor injuries and was taken to Newton Medical Center.
