2 killed in head-on crash in northeastern Minnesota

ST. LOUIS COUNTY, Minn. — Two men are dead following a head-on crash involving two pickup trucks on Thursday morning in northeastern Minnesota.
The St. Louis County Sheriff’s Office says it happened just before 9 a.m. on Biss Road, just east of Sand Lake in the town of Britt, located about 13 miles northwest of Virginia.
A 76-year-old man traveling eastbound on the road “appeared to have drifted off” onto the shoulder, then “overcorrected and continued across the centerline,” striking a truck driven by a 69-year-old man.
The sheriff’s office is still investigating and says the Minnesota State Patrol will reconstruct the crash scene.
