U.S. 287, infamously nicknamed the ‘Highway of Death,’ has claimed three more victims.
Thursday afternoon at about 2:46 p.m., three members of the UWYO women’s swim team died in a single-vehicle accident along U.S. 287 between Livermore and Virginia Dale, just 10 miles south of the Wyoming border.
The victims were 18,19 and 21, with one being an international student, according to SwimSwam.
According to the Casper Star Tribune, two additional passengers of the single vehicle accident sustained only minor injuries.
The cause of the accident is currently under investigation by Colorado State Patrol, Larimer County Sheriff’s Office and the Colorado Department of Transportation.
