New Mexico State Police: 4 dead in 3-vehicle wreck on I-40

SANTA ROSA, N.M. (AP) — Authorities say four people are dead after a three-vehicle wreck on Interstate 40 in eastern New Mexico. The New Mexico State Police says the crash occurred Wednesday night near Santa Rosa, which is 117 miles (188 kilometers) east of Albuquerque. Lt. Elizabeth Armijo told KOV-TV (https://goo.gl/6dvi1Q ) that an eastbound recreational vehicle's tire blew out and the RV then crossed the median and collided with two cars in the westbound lanes. Armijo says the four people killed were all in one vehicle.
