Semi Driver Could Face Charges After Hitting, Killing Pregnant Woman

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- A semi-truck driver could face charges in a crash that killed a pregnant mother.

The deadly wreck happened Monday morning in Le Sauk Township. Investigators say Corey Planck from Indiana told them he didn't see a stop sign and went through an intersection, hitting and killing 30-year-old Casey Myers from Holdingford. Myers was five months pregnant and her unborn baby also died.
