Chickasha, OK – A tractor-trailer driver was killed when his rig rolled after he crashed into a car on State Highway 39 east of Chickasha.

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says Albert Pender of Chickasha died in the collision about 8:15 Monday night.

Investigators say Pender was unable to stop and tried to pass the car on the left but hit the car and the rig then rolled twice.
