ANCHOR POINT, Alaska (AP) - A 51-year-old Homer man suffered life-threatening injuries in a Sterling Highway crash near Anchor Point.

Alaska State Troopers say a southbound small truck driven by Mark Shufelt collided Monday afternoon with a northbound sedan. Both vehicles left the west side of the road and rolled multiple times.

Shufelt was not wearing a seat belt and was ejected from the pickup. He was flown to Anchorage in critical condition.



Two Ninilchik men were in the sedan.

The driver, 56-year-old Donald Krech, and the passenger, 54-year-old Timothy Johnson, wore seat belts and sustained injuries that troopers say are not life-threatening.

They were taken to South Peninsula Hospital in Homer.

The cause of the crash has not been determined.
