VEBLEN, S.D. (AP) — Two men from Sisseton are dead and a third seriously injured after their pickup rolled in northeastern South Dakota.

The South Dakota Highway Patrol says the crash was reported around 5:30 p.m. Saturday near Veblen in Marshall County.

Killed were the driver, 46-year-old Waylon Horne, and a passenger, 53-year-old Keith DuMarce. Both died at the scene.

Another passenger, a 40-year-old man, also from Sisseton, suffered life-threatening injuries.

Authorities say the driver lost control, and the pickup sent into the ditch and rolled about six times. Both passengers were not wearing seatbelts and were thrown from the vehicle.

The Highway Patrol says alcohol and speed appear to be factors in the crash.
