Three people were killed Tuesday morning when a vehicle left a Waushara County road and crashed into a tree, the Wisconsin State Patrol reported.
The crash happened about 11:50 a.m. Tuesday on Highway H near Poy Sippi, which is about 40 miles west of Appleton, Sgt. Rhae Stertz said in a statement.
Investigators determined that a 2002 Chevrolet Impala with three occupants was eastbound on Highway H when it failed to negotiate a curve near Badger Road, went off the right shoulder, entered the ditch, began to rotate, struck a grass driveway, went airborne for about 70 feet and struck a tree roof first, Stertz said.
Speed is a suspected factor in the crash, which remains under investigation, Stertz said.
The State Patrol later identified the three killed as men from Mexico: Perez Domingo Santiago, 26; Apolinar Mateos Silvino, 26; and Estuardo Morales De Leon, 38.
