An 82-year-old Oklahoma man was killed when his car was hit while he tried to make a u-turn along a southeastern Kansas highway.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says Burl Speer, of Ochelata, Oklahoma, made a u-turn on U.S. Highway 166 a half mile west of Harper Road in Labette County shortly after noon Tuesday. His vehicle was hit from behind by an SUV.
Two people in the SUV were injured in the crash. The patrol identifies them as Bobby Maine, 50, and Ernest Maine, 19, both of Caney, Kansas. They were both transported to the Coffeyville Regional Medical Center for treatment.
