Arthur Marion Martin, Barbara Ann Parks, and William Robert Parks, dead after collision involving pickup truck, semi-truck, and passenger vehicle on U.S. 93 near Wickenburg, AZ

This catastrophic accident began on Friday afternoon, when a southbound pickup truck on U.S. 93 for some reason veered into the northbound lanes, and subsequently into the path of an oncoming semi-truck. The driver of the semi-truck managed to avoid a head-on collision with the pickup, but was still struck in the trailer. The pickup then continued to collide head-on with a passenger vehicle that was behind the semi, killing the driver of the pickup as well as two people who were in the other vehicle. A passenger in the pickup truck was hospitalized with injuries, and the semi-truck driver was uninjured. This crash remains under investigation; we will add more information as it becomes available.
