11 Killed in Ky. Crash, Van on Way to Wedding

MUNFORDVILLE, Ky. (AP) -- A tractor-trailer loaded with auto parts crossed a highway median Friday and slammed head-on into a van carrying a Mennonite family, killing 11 people before dawn on a hilly stretch of interstate.

The dead included an engaged couple and several members of their family, whose house burned down in December. Two children in the van were the only survivors of the crash about 75 miles south of Louisville.

The name of the truck driver, who was from Alabama, was not immediately released.

Illegal alien, or ROP? /thread-hijack>

Prayers UP for the kids, though.

I read elsewhere that the truck driver was a 40-something American with four children.
