FREMONT, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say a married couple were killed in the fiery collision between their sport utility vehicle and a semitrailer hauling a combine just west of Fremont.

The two people killed were identified Thursday as 28-year-old Jorge Medina, of Schuyler, and his wife, 26-year-old Liliana Chavez-Ortiz, of South Sioux City.

The crash occurred around 11:35 a.m. Wednesday on U.S. Highway 30. Authorities say the SUV crossed the center line and rammed into the truck driven by 53-year-old Vernon White, of Ringsted, Iowa. He was rescued from the cab and flown to an Omaha hospital for treatment. Medina and Chavez-Ortiz were pronounced dead at the scene.
