An extensive search of the surrounding area was also conducted to ensure there were no other victims, as a result of the collision. The report also states that there was a moderate mix of rain and snow at the time, but it’s not known if that also contributed to the crash. The Highway Patrol is still seeking more information from the public. (Their number is 477-4900).
