Authorities in Arizona look to identify four people killed in fiery crash

(KYMA, KECY/ AP News) - Authorities are trying to identify four people who died in a fiery crash involving a passenger car and a tractor-trailer near Sedona.

Arizona Department of Public Safety officials said the crash occurred Sunday afternoon where the driver of the big rig loaded with glass told DPS Troopers that the brakes failed and he couldn’t stop.

According to DPS, the semi-truck then drove through a stop sign and collided with a car, sending both vehicles down an embankment and causing a fire.

The truck driver was able to escape uninjured, but four people inside the car were trapped and declared dead at the scene, authorities said.
