LARNED – A Larned man was killed Wednesday in a one-vehicle rollover accident, according to the Kansas Highway Patrol.
Timothy Alan Parker, 22, was driving westbound on K-156 when his 2005 2005 Chevrolet Silverado veered off the roadway onto the north shoulder of the roadway. The accident report indicated Parker overcorrected and steered the vehicle back onto highway driving on the center line. The vehicle traveled back into the north ditch and the vehicle again moved out of the north ditch back up on the highway. The Silverado rolled two and half times before landing on its top in the westbound lane. Parker was reported to have been wearing his seatbelt.
Parker was recognized for his military service Aug. 20, 2011 in a public ceremony organized by the American Legion Riders Chapter 106.
