A northern Minnesota driver was killed in a collision Monday with a semitrailer truck, officials said.
The crash occurred about 9:50 a.m. in Ansel Township, about 24 miles west of Pequot Lakes, the State Patrol said.
According to the patrol:
The woman, 71 and from Cass Lake, was heading north in a car on Hwy. 64 near SW. 28th Street and collided head-on with a southbound semi.
The impact sent both vehicles in a ditch to the east.
The woman did not survive the crash. The truck driver, a 30-year-old man from Omaha, suffered noncritical injuries.
The identities of both drivers are scheduled to be released Tuesday afternoon.
