The Kansas Highway Patrol says a Salina woman died when her car collided with a semitrailer on a northern Kansas highway. The patrol says the crash happened Wednesday morning on U.S. Highway 24 several miles west of Clay Center.
Investigators say a westbound car driven by Kimberly Hinkle, 49, hit the eastbound semi head-on. The patrol says Hinkle died at the scene. Two men in the semi were not seriously injured.
