4 people killed in crash on I-64 in St. Charles County were from Louisville, traveling for volleyball tournament
ST. CHARLES COUNTY, Mo. — An accident that left four people dead along Interstate 64 Friday morning is now a criminal investigation, according to St. Charles County Prosecutor Tim Lohmar.
Lohmar said authorities are awaiting toxicology reports on the driver who caused the crash, and that the driver has a history of drug charges.
The driver of a white pickup truck crossed into the westbound lanes, striking a minivan with two women and two girls inside. Two of them were pronounced dead at the scene and two were pronounced dead at the hospital, according to Missouri State Highway Patrol Trooper Juston Wheetley.
“They were all transported to hospitals as fast as possible. And, of course, it’s hard to identify kids when they don’t have IDs on them and the two adults are dead,” Wheetley said.
