(KLZA)--A Friday afternoon single-vehicle rollover wreck in Richardson County claimed the life of a Holstein, Nebraska man.
The Richardson County Sheriff's Office said in a release that the Sheriff's Office, along with responders from Humboldt Fire and EMS, were dispatched to the wreck on Highway 8, west of the Highway 105 intersection, around 2:45.
The release says the driver and only occupant of the vehicle, 60-year-old Joel Schutte, was pronounced dead at the scene.
The Sheriff's Office says a preliminary investigation indicates Schutte was westbound on Highway 8 when his pickup truck entered the north ditch. The vehicle then rolled across the highway, coming to rest in the south ditch.
The release says Schutte was not wearing a seatbelt.
The wreck remains under investigation.
