Paxton Parker, 8, died, two others injured in a three-vehicle crash on Highway 34 in LaPlatte, Nebraska

Authorities say Elizabeth Sprunger, of Glenwood, was driving a 2009 Hyundai Sonata westbound east of LaPlatte, NE., on Highway 34, just west of Harlan Lewis Road. She lost control of the vehicle, which crossed into the eastbound lanes, and collided with an eastbound, 2015 Dodge Ram. Sprunger’s vehicle was then struck a second time by a semi-truck.
