(KMZA)--An early Tuesday afternoon two-vehicle Washington County crash claimed the life of Manhattan man.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says 46-year-old Brian Dowling was driving an eastbound pickup truck on U.S. 36 Highway, about five miles east of the city of Cuba, when he attempted to pass another vehicle and struck an oncoming semi.
Dowling was transported to the Washington County Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
The semi driver, 71-year-old Waterville resident Wayne Thomsen, was not hurt.
The Patrol says Dowling was not wearing a seat belt, but Thomsen was, when the wreck occurred around 12:30 Tuesday afternoon.
