RISING CITY, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say two people died and at least four others were hurt in two weekend crashes in Butler County.

The fatal accident happened Saturday evening on U.S. Highway 81, north of where it meets Nebraska 64.

The Nebraska State Patrol says alcohol was a factor in that crash when a motorcycle and car collided. The name of the deceased person wasn’t immediately released.

Earlier Saturday, a Ford F-150 pickup rear-ended a minivan as it tried to turn off of Nebraska Highway 92 east of Rising City.

The Butler County Sheriff’s office says one of four people in the minivan — 8-year-old Calleb Prellwitz of Rising City — died.

Three others in the minivan and the woman driving the truck were also taken to hospitals.
