Grassy Butte, N.D. (AP) Authorities have identified a man who was killed in the collision of two trucks in the western North Dakota oil patch.
The Highway Patrol says 23-year-old Lucas Bennett of Dickinson was a passenger in a pickup truck that collided with a larger freightliner straight truck near Grassy Butte Tuesday morning. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
The patrol says the pickup truck's driver swerved to avoid hitting a deer, the truck spun on the icy shoulder of the road and entered the path of the straight truck.
The two drivers both were taken to a Watford City hospital with undisclosed injuries.
