PINEVILLE, S.C. (AP) — South Carolina troopers say a mother and father were killed, but their three children survived a wreck near Pineville.
Authorities told multiple media outlets that 28-year-old Iesha White and her 29-year-old husband, Michael, died when she drove their SUV off state Highway 45 and it overturned, hitting a utility pole around 7:30 p.m. Sunday.
Troopers say downed power lines kept them from getting to the couple for several hours.
Authorities say the couple's three children, ages 10, 7 and 6, were injured in the crash and have been released from the hospital.
Troopers have not figured out what caused the 2002 Isuzu Rodeo to leave the highway.
