(KLZA)--A Stella, Nebraska man was pronounced dead at the scene of a two-vehicle crash in Richardson County Friday afternoon.
Richardson County Sheriff Don Pounds says killed in the wreck at the intersection of Highways 62 and 75 west of Stella was 49-year-old Dennis Lockard.
Pounds says Lockard was westbound on Highway 62 when he failed to yield the right of way to a southbound pickup truck on Highway 75 driven by 48-year-old Omaha resident Timothy Shoup. Shoup’s pickup struck Lockard’s vehicle when it entered the highway. Shoup was not hurt.
Pounds says authorities were not able to determine if Lockard slid through the intersection or failed to stop. He says the roads were slick when emergency personnel responded to the call around 1:30 Friday afternoon.
Also responding to the scene of the wreck were Humboldt Fire, Humboldt Rescue, Richardson County Emergency Management and the Nebraska Department of Roads.
