An Excelsior Springs man was killed in a single vehicle crash on U.S. 65 north of Violet road Friday evening.
The Missouri Highway Patrol says shortly before 6:00 p.m. David A. Butler, 53, overcorrected while changing lanes, when his 2013 Dodge Ram began to skid.
He then went off the roadway, hit a ditch, the Dodge went airborne and landed on its top.
He was transported to Bothwell hospital, but died a short time later.
