Wichita, KS (January 13, 2026) – A serious rollover crash near South Estelle Ave prompted an urgent response from emergency crews after bystanders reported a flipped vehicle and possible entrapment.
The incident occurred just before midnight and involved a white two-door vehicle, which overturned under unknown circumstances. A witness initially alerted authorities after hearing the crash and observing the overturned vehicle, though visibility at the scene was limited.
