HICKMAN, Neb. (AP) – Authorities say a man died at the scene of a fiery crash southwest of Lincoln.
Medics and deputies were sent late Wednesday night to the crash site about a mile (1.6 kilometers) south of Hickman. The Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office says the vehicle apparently went onto the shoulder and the driver overcorrected. The car spun, ran off the roadway, hit a tree and caught fire. Deputies suspect excessive speed was a factor in the crash.
The man was alone in his car. He’s been identified as 25-year-old Francisco Gonzalez, who lived in Lincoln.
