Salt Lake City man killed in crash on icy roadway in Arizona
A man was killed and several others were hurt in a multiple-vehicle crash on an icy stretch of U.S. Highway 93 in northwest Arizona on New Year’s Day.
It all started about 9:30 a.m. Thursday when a northbound Chevrolet SUV rolled on the highway near Wikieup, about 50 miles southeast of Kingman, according to the Arizona Department of Public Safety.
A Toyota SUV struck the Chevy before the Toyota was then struck by a Kia sedan, Department of Public Safety spokesman Bart Graves said. A passenger in the Toyota, Thomas Moeller Busselburg, 64, of Salt Lake City, died at the scene.
Graves said another passenger and the driver of another vehicle that was not involved in the crash who was trying to help were seriously injured. They were taken to hospitals in Kingman and Phoenix. The crash is still being investigated.
