The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says the man parked his pickup truck on the side of 412, just west of the Verdigris River bridge at about 6:30 a.m., left a note in his truck and then stepped in front of a westbound utility-type truck.

The man was identified as 51-year-old Ted Bowen of Tulsa. He was pronounced dead at the scene due to massive injuries, according to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol.

The driver of the truck was not injured.
