LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say a passenger was fatally injured in a collision south of Wymore in southeast Nebraska.
The crash occurred around 6:50 p.m. Thursday. The Gage County Sheriff’s Office says a car driven by 78-year-old Kay Farwell, of Du Bois, was headed south on U.S. Highway 77 when it turned east and was struck by northbound sport utility vehicle driven by 58-year-old Alice Bryan, of Wymore.
