(KNZA)--A single-vehicle crash in northern Shawnee County Friday night claimed the life of a Hoyt man.
The Shawnee County Sheriff's Office identified the victim as 47-year-old Brent Warner.
The sheriff's office says the wreck happened on Northwest 86th Street, just east of U.S. 75 Highway, when the passenger side tires of Warner's pickup truck dropped off the south side of the roadway.
Warner overcorrected, and the truck skidded across the road into the north ditch, where it flipped over back onto the roadway.
Warner, who was ejected from his vehicle, was pronounced dead at the scene.
The crash, which was reported shortly after 8:20 Friday night, remains under investigation.
