Crash in Eastern Nebraska Kills One Man

FREMONT, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say one person is dead following a rollover crash on Highway 275 near Fremont in eastern Nebraska.

Local media reports that the crash happened Saturday afternoon.

Witnesses told investigators that a driver was weaving in and out of traffic on the highway between Freemont and Valley. Investigators believe the driver passed a vehicle on the shoulder of the highway, crossed two lanes of traffic, went into the median and rolled.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office says the driver was thrown from the car and was found dead on the side of the road.

Authorities have not yet identified the person killed.
