DPS Investigators say a fiery wrong-way accident on Interstate 20 near Dallas has killed three children and both drivers.

Mesquite police say I-20 reopened early Thursday a few hours after a truck driven by 27-year-old Krystle Carranza of Lindale was going in the wrong direction and slammed into an SUV.

Mesquite police Lt. David Gill says the woman's three daughters also died in the wreck. The youngster's names and ages were not immediately released.

Gill says the name of the man driving the SUV also has not been released, pending notification of next of kin.

All five victims were dead at the scene.

A Department of Public Safety trooper spotted the pickup going the wrong way and attempted to stop the vehicle just before the accident late Wednesday.
