(KMZA)--An early Sunday morning single-vehicle Nemaha County wreck claimed the life of a Centralia man.
The Nemaha County Sheriff's Office says killed the wreck on Highway 63, about three-tenths of a mile south of 80th Road, was 22-year-old Kurtis Niehues.
The Sheriff's Office says Niehues was northbound when his Ford Focus left the east side of the roadway. The vehicle struck two KDOT signs and then an embankment at a private driveway, causing the vehicle to become airborne and roll.
Niehues, who was the lone occupant in the vehicle, was pronounced dead at the scene by the Nemaha County Coroner.
The wreck was reported around 3:00 Sunday morning, north of Corning.
