A Topeka man is dead after a rollover wreck in Western Kansas Thursday night.

The Kansas Highway Patrol said the accident happened around 10 p.m. just outside of Colby, Kansas.

They said Brent Emery, 27, of Topeka was traveling west on I-70, when for an unknown reason, he crossed the median into the eastbound lanes.

Officials said Emery lost control of his truck, causing it to roll.

He was ejected and died a short time later at a local hospital.

KHP said Emery was not wearing a seat belt.
