LANDER, Wyo. (AP) — Five people are dead following a head-on crash in western Wyoming.
Fremont County coroner Ed McAuslan says the crash happened early Thursday when two vehicles collided on state highway 789 near Lander.
One of the victims was a 17-year-old boy, who McAuslan says was one of the drivers. The other four victims, traveling together in a van, are still being identified. The coroner says the van burst into flames after the crash.
