Horses involved in 1 of two deadly weekend crashes

Two men were killed in separate motor vehicle crashes across the state this weekend, one of them involving horses.

Troy Hargreaves, 43, of Bemidji, was killed just before 5 a.m. Saturday while driving on Highway 71, just south of Park Rapids.

The Minnesota State Patrol says he was driving north on Highway 71 when his vehicle hit horses in the road.

About 4 a.m. Sunday in Minneapolis, a 29-year-old Plymouth man was killed when his vehicle rear-ended a stalled freight truck on westbound Interstate 394.

The state patrol said Yassin Isse was driving at highway speed when he hit the truck. He was wearing his seatbelt.
