LINCOLN – Speed, alcohol, and poor road conditions are being blamed for an accident that claimed the life of one man Thursday night.
According to Lincoln Police Department Sgt. John Wash, the accident on Main Street also sent one person to the hospital.
The identities of the people involved in the accident have not been released yet.
“Accidents certainly are common with this type of weather. Not necessarily to this degree,” said Sgt. John Walsh with the Lincoln Police Department. “Weather was a factor in it. We believe speed
and alcohol also may have been a factor.”
