Kathrine Kofoot, junior in horticulture, was killed in a head-on crash at 6:15 p.m. Friday.

The accident occurred just north of Humboldt, off of Highway 169.

A 1990 Delta Oldsmobile, driven by 75-year-old Jimmie Faltinson of Rutland, Iowa, was driving southbound in the northbound lane of Highway 169 when it collided head-on with a Chevy Cavalier, driven by Kofoot traveling northbound. Both drivers were killed.

A Webster County Sheriff’s car, driven by 39-year-old jailer Paul Keller of Manson and transporting two inmates, was traveling northbound behind Kofoot’s vehicle and swerved left to avoid the crash, hitting the rear of her vehicle. All passengers in the sheriff’s car were taken to the Humboldt County Memorial Hospital. The extent of their injuries is currently unknown.
