Two youths, Jean McFarland and Raymond Meyers, died, while others including a mother and a student teacher were hospitalized or listed in critical condition. Driver Francis Regis Mills faces manslaughter charges for driving without a license. The group from Central High School, Lonaconing, were en route to a swimming area to celebrate the end of school when the vehicle skidded and overturned after failing to stop on wet pavement. Emergency crews and motorists aided injured passengers as two other trucks carried remaining students to hospital.
