An East Texas man was killed when the horse he was riding bucked him into the path of an oncoming car.

The Texas Department of Public Safety says 42-year-old Yancee Lavan Curbow of Nacogdoches died about 9 p.m. Monday at a Nacogdoches hospital, 1 1/2 hours after the incident on State Route 21.

The DPS report says Curbow was riding about two miles west of Nacogdoches when the horse stopped and threw him into the path of a car driven by a friend of Curbow's family.
