Duncan Firefighter Killed in Stephens County Wreck

COMANCHE, Okla. (AP) — Friends and family are mourning the death of a Duncan firefighter who was killed after an SUV crashed into a group of motorcyclists he was traveling with.

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says it's not known what caused the SUV to cross a highway's center line and collide with the motorcycle riders over the weekend in Stephens County.

Fifty-three-year-old Monty Howell died in the weekend wreck, and at least five others were injured.

The crash remains under investigation.
