OHP Investigating Fatal Wreck Just East Of Stilwell

Oklahoma Highway Patrol is investigating a wreck that killed two men Thursday morning in Adair County. The three-vehicle wreck took place around 10:18 a.m. on Highway 51 just outside Stilwell.

OHP said Donald Fixin of Tahlequah ran through a stop sign on a county road and was hit by an oncoming pickup. Fixin and the other driver, Stilwell resident Derrick Miller, both died at the scene.

Neither man was wearing a seat belt, according to a collision report.

A third driver had minor injuries after Miller's car drifted into oncoming traffic after the crash.

ADAIR CO - SH-51 closed one mile east of US-59 until further notice due to crash. Use SH-100 as a detour.
