A man from Liberal rolled his van on K-61 in Reno County late Thursday night.

According to a report from the Kansas Highway Patrol, 72-year-old Steven M. Leete was driving a 1996 Ford Econoline van south on K-61 about five miles southwest of Arlington just before 11:30 p.m. and lost control on the slippery road. Leete's van entered the ditch and rolled and came to rest on its side.

Leete complained of pain, so he was taken to Hutchinson Regional Medical Center to be checked out. Leete was buckled up.
