WATFORD CITY, N.D. (AP) — One person has died in a three-vehicle collision on an icy bridge in McKenzie County.

The North Dakota Highway Patrol says a 48-year-old Wishek man was killed Monday when his Chevy Suburban was struck head-on by a pickup truck that skidded out of control on the Highway 58 bridge over the Missouri River. The driver of a third vehicle tried to avoid that collision, but struck the pickup. Three passengers in the truck suffered minor injuries.

The crash closed the highway for about 3½ hours.
