The Arizona Department of Public Safety has identified two men killed when their small sport utility vehicle crashed into a commercial vehicle during a dust storm in south-central Arizona.
They were the driver, 40-year-old Baldomero Lopez of Glendale, and his passenger, 48-year-old Rigoberto Palacios of Phoenix.
Department of Public Safety officers began warning travelers Saturday morning to avoid Interstate 10 near Casa Grande until the dust settled. The wind slowed by the afternoon, but Public Safety spokesman Harold Sanders said visibility along the interstate from mile post 190 to 216 remained poor.
Sanders says officers investigated four other collisions that resulted from Saturday's dust storms in the area.
