DRIVERS DIE IN WYTHEVILLE ACCIDENT

The victims were identified as Shirley Kate Brewer, 53, of Speedwell, and Carol Marie Sutherland, 41, of Elk Creek. Both were pronounced dead at the scene about 4 miles south of Wytheville.

Trooper Don Brooks said the northbound Brewer car came up behind a car that was stopped while waiting to make a left turn. He said the Brewer car went around it and collided with the southbound Sutherland car.

The impact knocked the Sutherland vehicle onto its top and into a fourth car waiting at a stop sign on Virginia 652.

Two passengers in the Sutherland car were injured. Viola Edwards of Danville was flown to a hospital in Winston-Salem, N.C., and Dale Evans Poe of Independence was flown to one in Bristol, Tenn.

Neither the 17-year-old juvenile in the car waiting to turn left nor Danny Dixon of Wytheville, who was at the stop sign, was hurt.
