Man Killed at End of ATV Drag Race in Mercer

An ATV race Saturday evening came to a horrifying conclusion in Mercer as a DeKalb man was killed at the end of the event. The Missouri State Highway Patrol reports that a Yamaha Banshee driven by Billy Nichols (64) of DeKalb was northbound on Mercer Homecoming Park at the conclusion of the ATC race when he was unable to stop and collided with a utility pole. He was taken to Wright Memorial Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead an hour later. Nobody else was injured in the wreck.
