A Louisburg man was killed Thursday in a one-vehicle accident on U. S. Highway 69 in Overland Park. The Overland Park Police Department responded to a call in the 18000 block of northbound U. S. 69 just after noon Thursday.
After investigation, it was determined that a silver pickup, driven by 57 year old Wayne Presley of Louisburg, was traveling northbound on the highway before veering right and striking a guardrail. The truck continued northbound and completely drifted right, again off the roadway, where it struck a steel light pole. Presley was pronounced dead at the scene.
The crash is still under investigation and anyone with additional information is encouraged to contact the Overland Park Police Department.
