      (AP) – Arkansas State Police say two people have been killed in

separate accidents on state roads.

      Troopers say 30-year-old Richard Keck of St. Paul died in a head-on collision

Saturday in Madison County and 68-year-old Theodore Stiles of Springdale died

Friday when his motorcycle collided with a vehicle in Springdale.

      A police report says Keck died when the vehicle he was driving crossed the

center line of Highway 23 near St. Paul and collided head-on with a truck, then

caught fire. The report says a passenger in Keck’s vehicle was hospitalized with

undisclosed injuries.

      Police say Stiles died when a southbound vehicle on Highway 71B made a

left-hand turn and struck his northbound motorcycle.

      The reports say the weather was clear and the roads were dry at the time of

both accidents.
