Vehicle rolls on interstate, killing driver

WICHITA — A 26-year-old Wichita man was killed in a single-vehicle accident on an interstate ramp at 2:14 a.m. Sunday.

The Kansas Highway Patrol reported a 2007 Mercury Mountaineer was eastbound on U.S. 54 when the driver, Luis Beltran Lopez III, attempted to exit onto Interstate 235.

The KHP said the SUV was going too fast, left the roadway and rolled several times, crossing both lanes of I-235. Lopez was ejected through the windshield.

The report said he was not wearing a safety belt.
