A tragic accident on October 31 resulted in one fatality and left another individual injured following a rollover crash in Fremont County, Wyoming.
The Wyoming Highway Patrol reported that the incident occurred just after 2:30 p.m. along Wyoming Highway 789, near mile marker 85.3.
According to initial reports, a pickup truck was traveling southbound when a second truck attempted to merge from the center lane. In an effort to avoid a collision, both the pickup and the vehicle directly in front of it swerved. Despite these evasive maneuvers, the merging truck collided with the pickup, lost control, and rolled several times before ultimately coming to a stop on its roof.
John Henderson, a 72-year-old Wyoming resident, was identified as the victim who lost his life in the crash. Authorities indicated that this information is preliminary and subject to further updates as the Wyoming Highway Patrol continues its investigation.
