A 67-year-old Klamath Falls man was killed Thursday when the vehicle he was riding in collided with a semi-truck on Hwy. 97, south of Klamath Falls near the Miller Island Wildlife refuge.

Oregon State Police said in a news release that a southbound Econoline van that Scott Lane Nelson was a passenger in — driven by Carl Francis Kollmar, 44, also of Klamath Falls — attempted to turn left into a driveway. The van entered the path of a northbound Peterbilt commercial motor vehicle, driven by Donny Kart Starr, 51, of Turlock, Calif.
