A 43-year-old Tribune man is dead after a crash early Monday morning on Kansas Highway 96 in Greeley County.

Three other people in the car — a 20-year-old woman, a 44-year-old woman and a baby strapped into a car seat — were hospitalized with injuries that ranged from minor to serious, the crash report says.
Greeley County in is western Kansas next to the Colorado state line.
