(KNZA)--A Brown County man escaped serious injury in a two-vehicle wreck last week in central Kansas that claimed the life of a teenager.

The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened on the evening of May 15 on K-156 Highway about three miles northeast of Ellsworth.

According to the KHP report, 18-year-old Nathaniel Dold, of Sterling, was eastbound when his car crossed the center line and struck a westbound semi-truck driven by 58-year-old Noel Schilling, of Morrill.

Dold was pronounced dead at the scene.

Schilling was transported to the Ellsworth County Hospital with suspected minor injuries.

The Patrol says Dold was not wearing a seat belt when the wreck occurred, but Schilling was.
