Two killed in fiery crash on I-380

August 14, 2008 By admin

Authorities have identified one of the two people killed in a multiple vehicle crash this morning in northeast Iowa. It happened around 7 a.m. on Interstate 380 near the Brandon interchange in Buchanan County. Sergeant John Baber of the Iowa State Patrol says investigators are still trying to figure out what happened. "We’re still trying to piece it together, but we did have a vehicle going northbound in the southbound lanes of I-380," Baber said. "It did strike one vehicle head on and two semis were involved."

The driver of the van, that was driving the wrong way on the road, was killed. That person has not been identified. The driver of the car was also killed. She’s identified as 38 year old Carrie McGill of Jesup. One of the two semis that drove through the crash scene ended up crashing in a ditch, where the rig caught on fire. The semi driver was taken to a Waterloo hospital.
