Wrong-Way Driver Crash On I-94 Kills 2

VALLEY CITY, N.D. (AP) -- A head-on collision on Interstate 94 in southeastern North Dakota has killed both drivers.

The Highway Patrol says a 35-year-old Fargo man was driving the wrong direction in the eastbound lanes shortly before 12:30 a.m. Wednesday. His car collided with an eastbound pickup truck driven by a 31-year-old Crane Lake, Minnesota, man, about 12 miles west of Valley City.

Both drivers were pronounced dead at a Valley City hospital. A passenger in the pickup was treated there for minor injuries and released.

The names of the victims weren't immediately released.
