BUTLER, Ind. (AP) _ Two pickup trucks collided head-on on a highway, killing six people and trapping survivors in the wreckage for hours, police said.
The crash happened Friday night when one truck's driver hit a car he was trying to pass, lost control and collided head-on with the second truck on U.S. 6.
DeKalb County police said it took nearly four hours to remove some of the victims from the trucks' crumpled wreckage.
Those killed included the 24-year-old driver who lost control and two passengers, both in their 40s. The 33-year-old driver of the second truck and two of his passengers, ages 29 and 36, also were killed.
Two survivors in the second truck were taken to a hospital, where one was in critical condition and the other was in fair condition Saturday.
Butler is about 120 miles northeast of Indianapolis.
