Caroline Billie was driving on Snake Road when she saw a bear in the road and couldn't stop in time to prevent hitting it. Her vehicle was seriously damaged and no longer driveable, and the bear was killed. Three vehicles that were traveling together on the road saw that she needed help and pulled over. Eight people got out of the vehicles. At the same time, Gary McInturff was driving in the opposite direction and did not see the parked vehicles. He hit one and sideswiped anoter, sending it into the people standing on the shoulder. The road was reportedly very dark at the time. Billie and McInturff were not hurt in the incident. Three people were killed, identified as Yoel Menendez, 44; Ricoberto Llanes, 43; and Alain Navarro, 46. Jose Vega, Mario Cecilio, and a juvenile passenger in McInturff's vehicle were also admitted to medical centers with non-life threatening injuries.
