RICHLAND, Neb. (AP) — A 53-year-old Fremont man has died in a crash that saw his car collide with a semitrailer on U.S. Highway 30 in eastern Nebraska.
Terry Kirchmann was pronounced dead at the scene of the Friday evening.
Colfax County Attorney Denise Kracl says the crash happened near the Platte-Colfax county line just west of Richland, which is east of Columbus.
Kracl said the semi was hauling a tanker filled with diesel when it drove onto the highway from a fuel terminal and was hit by Kirchmann’s car.
The 60-year-old driver of the semi was not hurt.
Authorities are still investigating.
