ROSHE HILL, Kan. — A volunteer with the Rose Hill Fire Department was killed late Friday when he lost control of his pickup truck while speeding to the scene of a house fire.

The Kansas Highway Patrol said Brandon Daley, 19, was thrown from his pickup after he lost control of the vehicle on Butler Road about 2 ½ miles north of Rose Hill.

Rose Hill Fire Chief Dan Armstrong said that when the alarm came in shortly after 11 p.m., the first truck left the fire station carrying five firefighters. He said he assumed that Daley would get to the fire the same way.
