Casper, WY : Harrisville couple killed, children injured in Wyoming crash on Saturday, January 3, 2015

A Utah couple died when their car collided with a semi-trailer rig just outside of Casper, Wyo. Their four young children and an adult male relative survived.

News of the Saturday morning crash initially was reported on social media by the friends and family of the victims, identified as 37-year-old Steven J. Kenison and his wife Eliza Kenison, 30, of Harrisville, Utah.

The Wyoming Highway Patrol reported the 7:45 a.m. crash occurred on Wyoming 387, about 7 miles east of Edgerton. Blizzard conditions likely led to Steven Kenison, who was driving, drifting from the westbound into the eastbound lane, troopers said.

Kenison’s Chevrolet Suburban was struck head-on by the semi, driven by a 60-year-old Canadian man.

Three of the children, including an infant, and the surviving adult male, reportedly remained in a Casper hospital over the weekend. A 2-year-old girl was flown to Primary Children’s Hospital in Salt Lake City, where she was later reported to be in good condition.

The semi’s driver and a male passenger were treated for minor injuries at the scene and released.
