GREAT FALLS, Mont. (AP) The Montana Highway Patrol says a 29-year-old Missouri man was killed when his motorcycle collided with a pickup truck near Hingham.

The man, whose name has not been released, was traveling west on U.S. Highway 2 just after 10 p.m. Wednesday when he hit an eastbound truck that was turning left. He was taken to a Havre hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The driver of the truck, a 17-year-old girl, wasn't injured in the wreck. A 15-year-old girl who was riding with her also was OK.

The Highway Patrol said the man was wearing a helmet and speed was not a factor.
