Alcohol may have factored in a crash that killed three Minnesotans last weekend in Grand Forks, North Dakota.
According to Grand Forks police, the crash happened Saturday around 12:20 p.m. on DeMers Avenue in downtown Grand Forks, and was caused by a 21-year-old Minnesota woman whom witnesses said was driving at an extremely high rate of speed.
Janessa Kelly, of Crookston, Minnesota, was westbound on DeMers Avenue in a Buick Regal when she crashed into a Chevrolet Impala and a Ford Explorer at the intersection with 5th Street, before striking a Dodge Caravan and rolling.
