(KMZA)--A Kansas City, Missouri man is facing charges in connection with a fatal wreck last fall in Marshall County.

According to court documents, John Kiser II was arrested October 16th on a Marshall County warrant charging him involuntary manslaughter, three counts of aggravated battery and texting while driving.

The charges stem from a three-vehicle wreck on September 16th 2023 at the junction of U.S. 36 and K-110 Highways, two miles south of Axtell.

Killed in the wreck was 63-year-old Denise Torrey, of Axtell. Three others were injured.

The Kansas Highway Patrol says Torrey was attempting to turn onto K-110 from U.S 36 when her vehicle was struck by a semi truck driven by Kiser. The impact forced Torrey's vehicle into oncoming traffic where it was struck by a pickup truck driven by Timothy Winkler, of Sabetha.

Torrey was pronounced dead at the scene. Winkler and two passengers in his vehicle were transported to regional hospitals with suspected serious injuries. Kiser was not hurt.

A preliminary hearing in the case has been set for October 31.

Kiser remains in the Marshall County Jail, held on a $500,000 bond.
