Hunter Man Killed In Garfield County Semi Wreck

A man from Hunter, Oklahoma, was killed after he rolled his semi truck in Garfield County Friday night.

It happened just before 8 p.m. Friday on State Highway 74, about half mile south of the Grant County line in Garfield County.

According to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, a 2011 Mack Semi driven by 50-year-old Raymond Lee Pacula was going south on highway 74 when it ran off the roadway to the right for an unknown reason.

Pacula attempted to bring the semi back on to the roadway, however, the semi rolled three quarter time, coming to rest on its driver's side.

Pacula was pinned in the semi for about one hour before being freed by the Garber Fire Department. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Troopers say Pacula was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the wreck. The cause of the collision is still under investigation.
