(KNZA)---A Pawnee City, Nebraska man was killed and two Falls City residents critically injured in a two-vehicle wreck early Saturday morning in Otoe County.
The Otoe County Sheriff's Office says 45-year-old Michael McClintock died from injuries received in the wreck on Highway 2, east of Palmyra.
Two passengers in his SUV, a 46-year-old man and 27-year-old woman, both of Falls City, were transported to Bryan LGH West Hospital in Lincoln.
The Sheriff's office says McClintock was eastbound when his SUV collided head-on with a westbound semi tractor-trailer in the westbound lanes.
The driver of the semi, from Nevada, was treated at an area hospital for minor injuries. A passenger in the semi was not hurt.
The sheriff's Office says road conditions at the time were icy with blowing snow.
The wreck, which was reported shortly after 12:30 Saturday morning, remains under investigation.
