WALLA WALLA, Wash. (AP) — An Arizona truck driver has been killed in a crash in Washington.

The Washington State Patrol says that 51-year-old Kevin Bruce Hensley was driving a semi on State Route 125 near Walla Walla, Wash., on Monday night when he crossed the center line for an unknown reason.

The agency says that Hensley overcorrected the semi, causing it to roll onto its side and slide off the highway and into a wheat field.

Hensley lived in Bowie in southeastern Arizona.
