The victim of a two-vehicle crash east of Treynor Saturday afternoon has been identified. The Rieken-Vieth Funeral Home in Oakland says 31-year old Joshua Alan Fritz, of Oakland, died in the crash that injured three other people. Additional details about the crash have yet to be released, but authorities say two vehicles collided head-on about 12:45 p.m. on 360th Street, just south of Iowa Highway 92. The Jaws of Life had to be used to remove at least one of the victims. The injured were transported to hospitals in Omaha.

An announcement from the funeral home says Fritz graduated from Riverside High School with the class of 2000. Afterward, he enlisted in the National Guard where he served until 2008. While in the Guard he was stationed in Afghanistan from 2004-2005 during Operation Enduring Freedom. On February 14, 2008 he was married to Melissa Ann Miller. The couple has one son.
