Three Irish men were headed east in a Chevy Malibu when the car crossed the centreline and collided with a Toyota. A husband and wife were travelling in the other car.

Kelly was riding in the back of the car. The second man was taken to Kingman for treatment while the third was flown to Las Vegas.
