(KAIR)-A Monday night, two vehicle crash, east of Atchison, left one person dead.
Killed in the collision was Weston, Missouri resident Charles McGrigg.
The 74-year-old died after the SUV he was driving collided with a semi head-on.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol says that happened when McGrigg, eastbound on U.S. Highway 59, in Buchanan County, Missouri, crossed the center line and smashed into the semi. That sent his SUV off the south side of the highway, while the semi ran off the north side of the roadway.
The driver of the semi, Donald Zimmerman, of Stratford, Texas, was not hurt.
The wreck happened around 9:30, and left highway traffic halted as emergency crews worked the scene.
