At least five people, including two teenagers, are dead after icy weather led to countless vehicle accidents across the South and lower Midwest on Wednesday.
The deadly accident that involved the two teenagers took place in southeastern Alabama, outside the town of Troy.
The Associated Press reports the vehicle carrying the teenagers struck a semi-truck after sliding on an icy bridge. A third teenager in the vehicle was being hospitalized with critical conditions Wednesday afternoon.
The other three deaths occurred in two separate incidents in northern Mississippi. According to the Associated Press, icy bridges were involved in both wrecks.
