MORAN — A Hutchinson man died Saturday afternoon in a three-vehicle accident north of Moran on U.S. 59.
Daniel Joseph Heimerman, 58, Hutchinson, was killed after the pickup he was driving was struck from behind by a dump truck driven by Zachary B. Rose, 21, LaHarpe. Heimerman had been stopped, waiting to turn left onto North Dakota Road from the highway.
The impact of the collision knocked Heimerman’s pickup into the path of a southbound utility vehicle driven by Della J. Dallavalle, 43, Leavenworth, who was southbound on the highway.
Heimerman was taken to Allen County Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Dallavalle was flown via helicopter to Overland Park Regional Medical Center. Her condition was not immediately available. Rose was uninjured.
All three drivers were wearing safety belts, according to KHP.
The accident also prompted authorities to divert traffic for several hours while the wreck was investigated.
