MADISON, Neb. (AP) — Authorities have identified the two Grand Island men who died in a crash in northeast Nebraska over the weekend.

The Madison County Sheriff’s office said a van driving south on U.S. Highway 81 Saturday slid on black ice and veered into oncoming traffic.

The van turned onto its passenger side before being struck by a pickup truck around 5:20 p.m. Saturday killing both occupants of the van.

The Sheriff’s office said 25-year-old Dario Garcia Tercero and 26-year-old Rosilio Renato De Pas both died.

The 22-year-old driver of the pickup from Madison, Nebraska, was treated at nearby hospital for his injuries and released.
