(KNZA)--A double-vehicle crash in western Kansas Friday night claimed the life of a former Holton man.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says 26-year-old Justin Kennedy was a passenger in a pickup truck that was struck by another pickup that failed to stop at a stop sign at the intersection of U.S. 183 and Feedlot Road north of Hays in Ellis County.
Kennedy was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the pickup that failed to stop, a Woodston, Ks man, was also killed. The driver of the pickup that Kennedy was a passenger in, a Garfield woman, and another passenger--a three-year-old child-were transported to a Hays hospital for treatment of possible injuries.
Kennedy was a 2006 graduate of Holton High School. He had lived most of his life in Holton and the past three years in Greensburg.
Funeral mass for Kennedy will be held Thursday morning at 10:30 at the St. Dominic Catholic Church in Holton.
Survivors include his parents, Paul and Janet Kennedy, of Mayetta.
