A Collinsville man was killed Monday morning in a Rogers County collision with a semi-truck.

 

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says 71-year-old Ernest Blakestad was driving a 2000 Ford F-150 on State Highway 20, near the intersection with North 152nd Avenue just after 6:30am on Monday. Troopers say Blakestad failed to yield at a stop sign and was struck by a 2025 Kenworth.

 

The OHP report says Blakestad was pronounced deceased at the scene due to his injuries.

 

The driver of the semi-truck and a passenger were not injured
