Three killed, including father and son, in three-vehicle accident on K-96 in Wichita

Two adults and a child killed in a three-vehicle accident Friday night on K-96 in east Wichita have been identified.

Two of the victims were father and son, according to an online post. Their vehicle caught fire after the collision.

The accident happened around 7:25 p.m. Friday on K-96 near 13th when 48-year-old Amanda Fleming of Wichita drove eastbound in the westbound lanes, a trooper wrote in an online crash report.

Fleming, who was driving a 2014 Dodge Durango, collided head-on with a 2019 Dodge Ram 1500 driven westbound by 31-year-old Randall Henrickson of Rose Hill with passenger 11-year-old Eli Henrickson of Rose Hill also inside.

The boy is the man’s middle son, according to a social media post.

Fleming and the Henricksons died at the scene.

The accident caused the truck to spin and hit a 2011 Dodge Ram 2500 driven by a 67-year-old McPherson man, who was also westbound and pulling a trailer.

The trailer tore off the hitch before stopping in the north ditch, the trooper wrote.

That truck “skidded across the median and came to rest on Eastbound K96 facing East,” the trooper wrote, while Henrickson’s truck became “engulfed in flames and came to rest on the North shoulder of K96 on its wheels.”

The Durango came to a stop on K-96 westbound.

The McPherson man and two men in the truck, a 59-year-old McPherson man and a 61-year-old Windom man, all had complaints of injuries. The Kansas Highway Patrol crash log doesn’t list them as being taken to the hospital.
