An ambulance responds to the scene of an emergency.
An Olivet man who died in a two-vehicle crash Monday just north of Olivet has been identified.
Preliminary crash information indicates the driver of a 1999 Cadillac DeVille was traveling north on 426th Avenue and slowed down at the intersection of 281st Street to attempt to make a u-turn.
At the same time, the driver of a semi was traveling the same direction and attempted to maneuver around the Cadillac as it continued its u-turn. The vehicles collided and came to rest in the west ditch.
The driver of the Cadillac, Rendell Lee Schelske, a 73-year-old man from Olivet, sustained fatal injuries.
The driver of the semi, Joshua Hofer, and a passenger, Marvin Hofer, were uninjured.
The South Dakota Highway Patrol is investigating the crash.
