HASTINGS, Neb. -- The Adams County Sheriff's Office said 29-year-old Ryan Nemitz, of Kearney, was killed in an accident involving a train and a semi truck near Juniata Wednesday.

The crash happened late Wednesday morning at a crossing a quarter-mile south of the intersection of 12th Street and Roseland Avenue about two miles west of Juniata. The sheriff said a north-bound semi truck loaded with grain collided with a west-bound Burlington Northern freight train.

The sheriff’s office said that crossing is non-controlled, meaning there are no flashing lights or cross arms.
