The Kansas Highway Patrol says a 2-year-old, southwest Kansas boy was killed after running in front of a truck.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reports Konnor Wilkerson of Plains ran into the middle of the street in Plains, a town of about 1,200 residents in Meade County, just after 7 p.m. Friday.

Konnor was struck by a 2001 Ford pickup truck driven by 59-year-old John Lawrence of Florence, Colo.

The patrol says Konnor was pronounced dead at the scene. No additional details of the crash were available.
