A Marble City man was killed early Friday morning in a one-vehicle wreck 14 miles south of Tahlequah in Cherokee County, according to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol (OHP).

The OHP reported Grandon W. Farris, 23, was driving a 1984 Chevrolet truck south on a Cherokee County road at a high rate of speed at about 3 a.m. when the accident occurred. The OHP reported that Farris' truck went off the roadway, struck a guard rail, and then overcorrected to the right, running off the road and striking a tree.

Farris, who was not wearing his seatbelt, was partially ejected out of the back window of the truck. The OHP reported Farris was pinned by the roof of the truck upon impact. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

The OHP reported that the cause of the collision was unsafe speed.
