A truck driver has died after one tractor-trailer rammed into the back of another on Interstate 80 in southeast Nebraska.
The fiery crash occurred late Wednesday afternoon just west of the Bradshaw exit. Bradshaw Fire Department Chief Todd Hellerich says his department responded to a call about a grass fire just east of the highway exit a little before 4:20 p.m.
While firefighters were putting out that fire, one eastbound semi hit the rear of another on the nearby interstate. The driver whose truck did the ramming was ejected and later died. The driver of the other semi was taken to a hospital. Their names have not been released. The crash is being investigated.
