A 19-year-old Helena man, Joseph Michael McKeon, died Sunday afternoon in a two-vehicle collision outside of Three Forks.
The crash, which occurred at 1:25 p.m., left two others injured.
Investigators said McKeon was a University of Montana student and was returning to Missoula after attending the UM-MSU football game over the weekend.
According to the Montana Highway Patrol, McKeon was driving a 1999 Ford Ranger near mile-marker 271 on Interstate 90 when he lost control.
His truck drifted off the south side of the interstate, crossed the median, and collided with an east-bound semi.
McKeon died at the scene, according to the report. Jefferson County Assistant Coroner Dave Kosola said the exact cause of his death is still under investigation.
A passenger in his truck, an 18-year-old woman, and the driver of the semi, a 57-year-old man, were both transported to Deaconess Hospital in Bozeman. Their names have not been released.
All three were wearing seatbelts, according to investigators.
The Highway Patrol said speed and winter road conditions were a factor in the crash, though alcohol wasn't involved.
