A former member of the Beatrice City Council is dead following a crash in the southeast Nebraska city.
Authorities say 83-year-old Wayne Bitting died when the pickup he was driving Monday afternoon hit a parked truck.
Police say authorities are investigating whether Bitting suffered a seizure prior to the collision.
Bitting's wife, 83-year-old Charlotte Bitting, suffered a broken arm and leg, and was flown to a Lincoln hospital.
Wayne Bitting served three, four-year terms on the Beatrice City Council. He also was the long time water superintendent for the city before retiring.
Police say an autopsy will be performed to determine what caused his death.
