CALERA, OK - A day after a Durant man, woman, and child were killed in an accident near Kingston, OHP troopers say an early-morning crash in Bryan County has taken the lives of two more Durant residents - this time a father and son.

A police report Tuesday said those killed in the crash about 5:20 a.m. were 50-year-old Jackey J. Ross Jr. and 25-year-old Jackey J. Ross III.

Troopers said they were westbound on U.S. 70 when their car left the roadway on the right, overcorrected and then left the roadway to the left, striking a tree with the passenger side of the vehicle. Both men were wearing seat belts, troopers said.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.
