A 60-year-old Noble woman was killed in a two-vehicle crash Tuesday afternoon along U.S. Route 50 just east of Noble.
According to Illinois State Police Troop 9, Kimberly Black was traveling westbound in an SUV when she crossed the centerline and collided head-on with an eastbound semi-truck.
Black was pronounced dead at the scene. The truck driver, a 31-year-old man from Swansea, Illinois, was transported to a local hospital with injuries. His name has not yet been released.
U.S. 50 remained closed for several hours while authorities investigated and cleared the crash site.
Richland County emergency crews assisted Illinois State Police at the scene.
