Three people were killed in a weekend car crash that took place in western Montana. The fourth victim of the crash was hospitalized.
The Flathead County Sheriff’s office noted that 42-year-old Melodi Johnson and her 14-year-old daughter, Abigail Johnson, of Dayton were killed in the crash together with Kevin Hunt, 28, of Kalispell.
A 14-year-old passenger who was riding with the Johnsons was admitted to Kalispell Regional Medical Center for unspecified injuries, the Missoulian reported.
Montana Highway Patrol believes Hunt was moving north on Montana Highway 35 when his GMC truck crossed the center line and struck a Dodge Caravan that was being driven by Johnson in the opposite direction. The truck then caught fire and was engulfed in flames.
Montana Highway Patrol is investigating the crash.
