The trio was killed when their 2008 Chevrolet Malibu collided with a 2003 Chevrolet Silverado, driven by John Allen Waller, 51, of Greenville. Waller and an unidentified passenger were air lifted to Sacred Heart Medical Center in Pensacola, Fla., for treatment.
The crash, which occurred at 3:54 p.m. at the 80-mile marker seven miles north of Brewton, remains under investigation, Maloy said.
