A 46-year-old Topeka man was flown via air ambulance to Kansas University Hospital in Kansas City, Kan., on Wednesday night following a single vehicle rollover accident on U.S. Highway 40 west of Lawrence.

About 8:30 p.m. Harry Balazs was driving a Chevrolet pickup truck west on the highway when his vehicle left the roadway, hit a driveway culvert and turned over, according to a Kansas Highway Patrol dispatcher.

Balazs was ejected from the vehicle. The extent of his injuries was unknown late Wednesday night.

The section of U.S. Highway 40 between East 300 and East 400 roads was temporarily shut down and traffic was rerouted.

According to a hospital official, the man’s condition was unavailable Wednesday night.
