Authorities ID victims of fatal crash in southern Minn.
Albert Lea, Minn. — The State Patrol has identified three of the four people killed in a Wednesday traffic accident in southern Minnesota, and they include two children from Iowa.
They are Bambi Khemphomma, 13, and Christi Khemphomma, 11. of Waterloo, Iowa. They were riding in a minivan driven by a 46-year-old from Waterloo, who was killed but not identified Thursday.
The other person killed was Gloria Anderson, 62, of St. Charles, Ill. She was driving a 1996 Toyota that the Patrol says crossed the centerline on Interstate 90 and struck a semitrailer.
The semitrailer then crossed into the eastbound lane and struck the minivan carrying the group from Waterloo. It happened about 2:30 p.m. Wednesday at I-90 at Minnesota Highway 13 near Albert Lea.
The patrol says the truck driver, Randy Pedersen, 56, of Swaledale, Iowa, wasn't hurt.
