SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) - Two men have died in a fiery highway crash between two pickup trucks west of Sioux Falls.

Both drivers of the trucks, ages 24 and 59, were killed Thursday when their vehicles collided head-on on Highway 42, according to the South Dakota Highway Patrol.

The 59-year-old victim was westbound and pulling a trailer with a tractor on it when he collided with an eastbound pickup driven by the 24-year-old man near Wall Lake, the patrol said.



Both vehicles started on fire after crashing, according to officials. Both drivers, the lone occupants, died at the scene.

The victims have not yet been identified.
