MURRAY, Neb. (AP) - Authorities say two drivers were killed in a head-on collision near Murray in eastern Nebraska.
The Cass County Sheriff's Office says the accident occurred around 5:30 a.m. Sunday on U.S. Highway 75. The office says a southbound car driven by 21-year-old Efrain Soto, of Omaha, crossed into oncoming traffic and struck a vehicle driven by 43-yaer-old Dion Higgins, of Nebraska City.
Both men were pronounced dead at the scene.
The accident and subsequent investigation forced the highway to be shutdown for seven hours.
