LIMA, Ohio - A Lima man was killed yesterday when he lost control of his sport utility vehicle and hit a tree head-on.

Moses Gonzalez, 51, was southbound on State Rt. 65, just south of Lutz Road, when his vehicle went off the left side of the roadway about 12:30 p.m., according to the Lima post of the Ohio Highway Patrol.

Troopers were still investigating the crash last night but believe Mr. Gonzalez may have fallen asleep at the wheel.
