Police are still investigating a two-vehicle crash that happened May 22nd north of downtown Wichita, and one of the victims of the crash has died.

Police said a car was traveling east in the 700 block of East Murdock when it went out of control and into the westbound lanes, hitting a westbound SUV near Santa Fe.  There were four people in each vehicle, and they were taken to hospitals with injuries ranging from minor to critical.

A front seat passenger in the eastbound car, 19-year-old Jonathan McPherson-Pickett of Wichita, did not regain consciousness after the crash and he was later pronounced dead.  The car overturned after the crash.

Investigators believe speed was a contributing factor in the crash.   Anyone who witnessed the crash is urged to contact detectives at 316-350-3687.

This is Wichita’s tenth fatality crash of the year, and it’s the tenth traffic death.
