BURNETTOWN, S.C. (AP) — Authorities say an 82-year-old man driving to his brother's funeral has been killed trying to make a U-turn on a busy highway in South Carolina.

Aiken County Coroner Tim Carlton said in a news release that Ryan Still of Walterboro missed the exit on U.S. Highway 78 for the funeral home Friday morning.

Carlton says Still was trying to make a U-turn when he drove his Lincoln Town Car in front of an oncoming vehicle.

Authorities say Still's grandchild and a friend were with him in the car and were taken to the hospital along with the driver of the other car. Their conditions were not released.
